#BookFace sweet BookFace!

“Floating upward through a confusion of dreams and memory, curving like a trout through the rings of previous risings, I surface. My eyes open. I am awake.” We’re coming home for this week’s #BookFaceFriday, “Crossing to Safety” by Wallace Stegner (Modern Library, 2002). Lauded as one of the greatest and most cherished American novels of the twentieth century, this novel about marriage and friendship follows two couples across decades of love and conflict. Originally published in 1987, this title is available as book club kits for your library.
“A superb book. . . . Nothing in these lives is lost or wasted, suffering becomes an enriching benediction, and life itself a luminous experience.”
―Doris Grumbach
