ОглавлениеPraise for Monument Road
“Quimby’s storytelling, his humane impulses and his lyrical passages on the meaning of love and time, and on the history, geology and botany of the region, will surely impress readers.”
—MINNEAPOLIS STAR TRIBUNE
“Not to be overlooked is the love, humor and friendship among pain and loss, which makes it a book far more about the richness of life than the finality of death.”
—GRAND JUNCTION DAILY SENTINEL
“Part modern western, part mystery, this first novel will appeal to fans of Louise Erdrich and Kent Haruf. Quimby’s prose reads so true, it breaks the heart.”
—BOOKLIST, starred review
“The Colorado setting and the author’s simple style of prose perfectly complement the complexity of the human spirit in this superb debut.”
—PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
“Monument Road is so rich with landscape, character and event that such a small telling cannot begin to do it justice. Read this exquisite story; it is a joy and a wonder and a tour de force of authorship.”
—SHELF AWARENESS
“A big-hearted novel chock full of memorable characters, a pleasure to read.”
—DAVID RHODES, author of Jewelweed
“In prose that might have been chiseled from the magnificent landscape he describes, Charlie Quimby has written a great big American Novel. Full of pathos and humor and sadness, you won’t reach the end of this book without feeling fuller and wiser.”
—PETER GEYE, author of Wintering
“A book of confessions and connections, fear, forgiveness and, ultimately, the stirrings of redemption.”
—HIGH COUNTRY NEWS
