I am giving away my copy of Kent Haruf’s Benediction (see review here). Set in a small town in Colorado, this deceptively simple novel, which reminds me of the novels of Willa Cather, is the story of Dad Lewis, who is dying of cancer, his devoted wife and daughter, and friends and neighbors who help out and make the last summer bearable.
I very much enjoyed this, and would be happy to pass it on to someone.
Leave a comment if you’d like it.
And if no one wants it, I’ll give it to the charity sale!
Thanks for offering. I am interested in the book.

Thanks for the offer, but I’m still happy with my Balzac. Besides I’m not too interested in sparse realism at the moment.

Tony, I’m glad you like the Balzac. I liked Benediction very much, but “sparse realism” is a good description.
Nancy and Jen, I’ll “draw” the name tonight. Maybe someone else will comment…
