Title: Gorgeous and worth the wading through
Review: There is something beautiful and contained to Richard Power's earlier works, which, regrettably, has diminished in his more recent novels--not that there are any fewer themes, but the integration is tight, there is a clear sense of wonder about the ways of the world, and a sense of joy in weaving all of these elements together. Yes, it's not necessarily the most accessible of contemporary literature, but well worth dipping a toe in just to see what the fuss is about, and staying for the knowledge. This is not easy fiction to create, either, a requires a certain persistence of vision, sweat and tears to leash together and maintain cohesion over so many pages. It's comforting to know that there are still authors in today's age who are still fighting the good fight and building cathedrals when it may be easier (and better received) to create post-modern, deconstructed, self-aware shacks.
