Query: plain wonderful

In his novel Plainsong, Kent Haruf manages to gently enter the lives of several people in a small Colorado town. Kent Haruf writes in a wonderful unembellished style that paints a picture in your heart. The story involves the falling apart ,salvaging and rebuilding of families. It defines what really does make a family a family. The story involves a high school teacher , his two young sons and the emotionally unavailable wife and mother. There are the Macpheron brothers (two older bachelor farmers) and an abandoned 17 year old pregnant high school student. The weaver of the fabric of this story is an unmarried teacher named Maggie. She shows true compassion and understanding and reweaves these "families". The story moves gently and beautifully and pulls you right in. Plainsong is a true joy to read.
