![]() ![]() This is one of the reasons I did not review The Innocents when it was published in August. Now, many have written about the sensitive content of this novel and you may already know – if you do not, I recommend that you read The Innocents and have the pleasure of discovering this novel without reviewer’s comments. The best way to read a book, in my opinion. So, as I read I came to suspect what was to come in the story without already knowing what was later revealed in reviews. ![]() I read an advance copy of The Innocents in the late spring when I was in Newfoundland. How could I have doubted? The Innocents is a great book, and I do not say this lightly. His previous book, Sweetland, is one of my all time favourite books – so I feared, a little, that The Innocents might not be as wonderful. A new book by Michael Crummey is always cause for celebration. ![]()
