Wolf Willow

 

Wolf Willow by Wallace Stegner
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I’ll start by saying I am a Stegner fan. I have been since the first one I read. This is the tenth one I have read. But I didn’t enjoy this one as much as the others. It is full of the history of Saskatchawan, Canada where Stegner spent part of his growing up years. He goes back as an adult and reminisces and recalls and retells stories. I loved that part. There are a couple of self-contained short stories in this book that were absolutely spell-binding. But over half of the book was history. I was not that interested in that. It was hard for me to stay interested. So, overall, I give it 2 ½ stars. Because it’s Stegner, I’ll round up to 3.
