MOVING SIMPLICITY,
By A Customer
This review is from: Life Between Azalea Festivals (Paperback)
With a singular voice to watch, Amy Jo Wood explores her own journey of grief in this deceptive collection of short stories/character sketches/memoirs. Truth literally exudes from each word, and you are transported to a different place and time. The characters explored become real to you, most particularly the author's own voice, which is alternately joyful, passionate, sad, but always insightful and charming. You feel the need to walk these paths yourself to wash in the transcendental footsteps Ms. Wood has luckily left behind.

Simplicity that is moving,
By A Customer
This review is from: Life Between Azalea Festivals (Paperback)
In an age of superlative and sophistication overload, how refreshing to find such a down-to-earth style, one that conveys human nuances without overly distracting. I hope Wood keeps the pen in hand and writes more. Parts of this book moved me, and motivated me to finally visit Wilmington, which was everything Wood's descriptions promised.
