Book Review of Plainsong

Plainsong
Author: Kent Haruf
Genre: Literature & Fiction
Book Type: Paperback

I would echo the NYTs book review: delicate, lovely - very real. Was not sure I could get into the simplicity of the prose, sparseness of spoken words, so much feeling left unspoken by the characters...yet this is a beautifully written book full of emotional depth. Highly recommend.
