Itty Bitty Book Review

"Sointula" by Bill Gaston Here is a summary of the novel...not my own words. I seem to be getting very lazy. I'm not quite sure what to make of it. I kept reading it so it did keep my interest. I think I'm ready for something light and amusing "At the heart of Sointula is Evelyn, a middle-aged woman who abandons her privileged existence. She throws away the trappings of her civilized life—her antidepressants and her air ticket home, her wallet and most of the clothes off her back—steals a kayak, and embarks on a quest that takes her deep into the wilderness. The goal: to find Tom—her strange, damaged son—in the remote village of Sointula. Equal parts light and dark, compassion and irony, this is Gaston’s most mature work."
