Query: Hard, Hard Read

I found Annie Proulx to be an incredible talent. Her ability to convey and portray ideas in a unique way was astounding and something writers should aspire to. The sentences are short and to the point, almost like reading a person's thoughts (a nice change of pace from the overly wordy, breathy, flowery writers that seem to bombard the bookstore). Her ability to portray setting is astonishing. The subject matter however is tough. It's very hard to keep from feeling sad after reading this book. I found myself needing to take a few breaks in-between chapters because I was so overwhelmed with the things that were happening to the characters. The main character is especially heartbreaking.Overall, it was an interesting read, but a person should have Kleenex ready!
