So brilliant! Would've finished by now but had to quickly re-read Nona Fernández's excellent Voyager to present to a book group. Happy to return to Barkskins - and will be sad to leave it behind.

Still extremely gripping!

A gripping, epic, muti-generational tale of colonisation and the destruction of mighty, previously unspoiled and life-nurturing forests.

I'm actually listening, and only to Of Human Bondage, but that didn't appear on its own on GR.
Very enjoyable coming-of-age novel, autobiographical, with a few changes of detail. Excellent style and tone. I really enjoyed Cakes and Ale, another semi autobiographical work by him, and this 25 hour listen is very engaging so far.

I'm very enthused and excited about reading this book!!

Listening on Audible - living up to the recommendations so far - very clever and enjoyable!

Despite needing to look up stuff about mid 17thc politics and religious issues from time to time I absolutely love this book and can't put it down!! Great recommendation from Anna Palmer 🥰
