After what I thought was a slow start setting it all up, this book seized me roughly by the nape of my neck and held on. A story of family and personal courage, no less so because of the horror the main character, Bone, endured, it was at once deeply disturbing and hopeful. Required reading for anyone who wants to know more about the experience of abuse. The mythical themes stay with the reader a long time, I expect. For me,the most rewarding read in a long time. The writing was a model of astounding description using plain words

Did I say I loved it?
