"Ursula, Under" - Ingrid Hill



It is our current book club selection. Anyone else read it?
I'm loving the jumping back and forth through various centuries in order to conncect with ancestors of the main characters.
Certainly makes me pause to reflect on the 'connectedness' that we all share.

2. In some ways it is reminiscient of "Accordion Crimes" by Annie Proulx.
The 'flashback' chapters are rich in descriptive prose.

Very lovely indeed.
