Review:

Like all Willa Cather novels the prose is exquisite.

Unlike most Willa Cather novels this was not set in the Great Plains. It was a novel of 17th century Quebec. Go Canada!

Had to dust off my French skills as there were quite a few bits and pieces en français with no translation.

Usually I complain about books needing to be shortened. This one needed to be longer, too many loose ends that just got the ol deus ex machina treatment in the short epiloque.
