Content descriptions
Summary, etc.: | "The short, potent essays of Margaret Renkl’s Late Migrations: A Natural History of Love and Loss are objects as worthy of marvel and study as the birds and other creatures they observe. Linked stories concentrate on Renkl’s family, her childhood in Alabama, and her current home in suburban Nashville. Her memories and definitions of her surroundings and family members always come with awareness of the humming, buzzing natural world around her.Brief essays join together to create a whole, linked by themes and recurring characters. Individual scenes are compelling, rich, satisfying, and always delivered with the assurance that they are powerful on their own. None are weighed down with unnecessary explanations."--forewordreviews.com. |
