Commentary To Books Winter's Bone

The sheriff's deputy at the front door brings hard news to Ree Dolly. Her father has skipped bail on charges that he ran a crystal meth lab, and the Dollys will lose their house if he doesn't show up for his next court date.

Ree's father has disappeared before. The Dolly clan has worked the shadowy side of the law for generations, and arrests (and attempts to avoid them) are part of life in Rathlin Valley. But the house is all they have, and Ree's father would never forfeit it to the bond company unless something awful happened. With two young brothers depending on her and a mother who's entered a kind of second childhood, Ree knows she has to bring her father back, dead or alive, or else see her family turned out into the unforgiving cold.

Sixteen-year-old Ree, who has grown up in the harsh poverty of the Ozarks, learns quickly that asking questions of the rough Dolly clan can be a fatal mistake. She perseveres past obstacles of every kind and finally confronts the top figures in the family's hierarchy.

Along the way to a shocking revelation, Ree discovers unexpected depths in herself and in a family network that protects its own at any cost.

Piece Of Books Winter's Bone

Horrendous, goopy, writers' workshop writing."Moons of ache glowed in spaces of her meat and when she moved the moons banged together and stunned." (Are sentences required to make sense in "contemporary fiction?")"Moans droned from her chest of bones. Shit leaked from her panties and she felt runnels of yuck on her thighs." Channeling Dr. Seuss and Cormac McCarthy simultaneously: ambitious!"She thrust her head into the cold and broadcast the hot mush of old swallowed food toward the snowbanks."

Ok, I read Winter's Bone on D and Karen's recommendations, so Im posting links to their reviews before I start:http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...andhttp://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...Winters Bone is a hell of a book in that A) the novel is fantastic, and B) it's set in an American version of hell. The story of Ree, a teenage girl charged with finding her bail-jumping father in order to save her familys house, catches fire early and never cools down. Ree lives in a terrifying section

I'm not feeling like a full review today so I'll limit this to only a few comments. *The Ozarks in which this book takes place seem to have nothing in common with the OZARK Netflix show. *I have no doubt in my mind that life in some areas of the Ozarks is as brutal as it's depicted in this book. Poverty, drug use, tight family units, and long-held multi-generational grudges are just part of the miserable lives examined here. *I couldn't help but feel for 16 year old Ree who just wanted to join

Its funny how my brain works. So this novel is about a strong teenage girl living in conditions of depressing destitution without a father, caring for her sibling(s) and her invalid mother, cooking for them, bathing them, getting them ready for school, and generally assuming a responsibility that far exceeds her yearsshe even hunts squirrel! Any of this sound familiar? Maybe Im not the only one who was reminded of Katniss Everdeen, but whats interesting is that both Everdeen and Ree Dolly, the

Great story, characterful, fits in with my favorite authors Cormac McCarthy and Annie Proulx. I loved Ree! Hear a movie is made of this book, glad I read the book first!

I grew up in a rural area with no shortage of poor rednecks so I thought I knew about country poverty, but the people I knew with their decayed farm houses and trailers lived like Donald Trump compared to the backwoods clan of hill folk in this book.Ree Dolly is a 16-year old girl who dropped out of high school to take care of her crazy mother and two younger brothers. She lives in a remote part of the Ozarks where the only job opportunities are in crystal meth production. Ree plans on joining
