Whip-poor-will, Whippoorwill
Dusk of mourning doves
Mother is sleeping still
Crooked nest above
Flutter home, Little B,
Cry out, “Mom, I’m home!”
Mother does not wake from sleep.
Little B mourns alone.
Whip-poor-will, Whippoorwill
— A pixelated sky —
Cries his only word until
A child stirs by the fire.
“Mom, what is that bird I hear?”
She asks while roasting s’mores.
“The bird that sings to us? Oh, dear
His name

| Read this on my Italy trip! It truly does justice to Venice, an amazing city, although the middle 1/3 gets bogged down with a couple less-interesting characters. Still a very enjoyable read. | |

Medusa: 4.5 stars —Really good premise that combines some other famous literary works. It’s certainly a piece of literature that wears all influences on its sleeve, so to speak —Most of the characters are well-written and engaging. Too much time is spe ...more |

| Not my favorite Hemingway book. Parts of it get too slow for me. The dialogue also doesn’t hit as hard as “The Sun Also Rises.” | |

| This book is extraordinarily beautiful. It can be intense at times, even though the big mystery is paid off realistically, not exactly what I expected in the end. It’s a lovely example of John Green’s best writing. The Indianapolis setting, of course ...more | |
