Things Beloved
Book description
Why read it?
1 author picked Things Beloved as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I met the author at a writers’ workshop and ordered the book out of solidarity, and then was happily blown away by the tight, smart prose, especially in the second of the two novellas, which is about a boy who finds a sailboat half buried in the sand and restores it.
I found the story spare and intensely moving. This book is like a secret treasure—a real find.
