Cold Mountain
by
by
This book was flowing like a dream. Slow, beautiful, and very descriptive. Cold mountain is an odyssey through nature, how cruel life can be and what it takes to survive.
I am still processing all the emotions this took out of me. I don’t really want to go deeper, this is just a book that needs you to dive in and experience the journey by yourself.
I just wish the epilogue wasn’t included. The ambiguous ending was perfect as it was, so it ruined my perspective a little bit.
Still, the writing is sublime, it really calls a second more attentive read to enjoy it even more the second time around. The story of Ada and Inman will stay with me a long time.
Thanks a lot Peter for recommending this very poetic book to me!

You are welcome Mel and I'm delighted to see you enjoyed this book. Excellent review and it seems like a book that has more to give on a second reading and I also plan to reread this book at some point in the future. 👊
