Title: One of a Kind
Product review: There is no other writer like Tom Drury. He explores the common-place, and somehow, in a casual and off-hand way, ends up exploring the profound and universal. His books seem like real life, in that it isn't always apparent what the significance is of certain observations or characters. He is a very down-to-earth writer, who cares about the characters he creates, even if they appear only briefly. In "The Black Brook" the main character, Paul, is almost heart-breaking in his inability to connect with those around him. It is a beautiful and funny book, that ends up a bit scattered at the end. But it resonates.
