Anna Hofmann's Reviews > The River

This book had a " To the lighthouse" Virgina Wolf feel, to me. Very psychological and internal. I enjoyed it. I enjoyed how you feel like you're in the Harriet's head. Harriet is a young girl who is coming to the age of knowing her own mind. That tiny space between childhood and young womanhood. I love how the author shows the tension in her, how she wants everything to stay the way it is and uses the metaphor of the River, how the river continues to go and go and is never the same. Just like life,continually changing.
