What's NewNOVELIST JEFFREY LENT ON I'LL NEVER BE LONG GONE6/15/2005
Jeffrey Lent, author of IN THE FALL and LOST NATION, offers this comment:
‘I’ll Never Be Long Gone is a richly etched, haunting tale of the
legacies of generations, of two brothers very different search for the
meanings of lives they seemed projected into more than they control, a
broad meditation upon love and the sacrifice love demands and
ultimately, for each, the challenge to confront themselves upon their
own terms. In prose deeply evocative of landscape and place, there’s
deft rendition of the notion that while a place may inhabit us, we
rarely comprehend the cost and loss of such habitation. Highly
recommended.’
