4.0 out of 5 stars
A vivid sense of place and time,
By Barbara Brydges (Calgary, AB Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sisters of Grass (Paperback)
One of the most difficult of achievements for a novelist is to truly convey the essence of life in another time but Theresa Kishkan's portrayal of life in the frontier country of the Nicola Valley of British Columbia at the turn of the twentieth century rings absolutely true. And anyone who has ever visited the Nicola Valley will smell again the scent of the air, feel the heat on their skin and hear the bird songs, so evocative is her language. A wonderfully accomplished book.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Unique and meaningful,
By dr. glk (Wilds of New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sisters of Grass (Paperback)
Sisters of Grass is one of the most beautiful books I have read. Kishkan is a master at lyrical writing that brings nature alive. The characters are sympathetic, and the structure of the book is smart. She leaves you wanting more rather than overplay the story. Another fabulous Canadian author. Check out Margaret Laurence too.
