“Remarkable. . . . A deftly woven narrative saturated with violence, hardship, and triumph. Readers will be richly rewarded, for by the end of this deeply felt novel it is hard to let the frontier town and its people go.” — San Francisco Chronicle
This New York Times bestselling novel by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Annie Dillard is a mesmerizing evocation of pioneer life navigated by European settlers and Lummi natives in the Pacific Northwest during the last decades of the 19th century.
The Living is a tale full of gold minors, friendly railroad speculators, doe-eyed sweethearts, shifty card players, and 19th century adventures that will stay with you long after you close the book.

För mig som har bott i ”the Pacific Northwest” har själv ämnet en speciell laddning. Men för alla som är intresserade av amerikansk historia eller fascinerad av nybyggartiden kan detta vara klart läsvärt. Tänker också på titeln och på alla de som fick sätta livet till och på de levande som ändå tröskade på, trots allt de var tvungna att försaka.
