Falling Star by Randal Nerhus
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I found this book hauntingly beautiful. When I first started reading it, I didn’t realize the content was written in the mannerism what Native Americans would speak given the date range it was written in, so I had to slow down reading and take in words more. I felt that the author utilized that to give more feeling to the book and pay tribute to the authenticity of the story itself. At the same time, this book was a piece of work that felt real to me.
The characters in the book had so many details, and the scenes were well thought out that I felt it was a retelling of an exact location of history.
The sad truth is that you could tell so many scenes like this from history. I commend the author for writing such a book that makes a reader want to take the time to take every moment and slow down to be closer to the moments within the pages.
