Winter’s Bone
Daniel Woodrell
With our own weather causing chaos and tales of adversity, Winter’s Bone seems a fitting pick for March. During the harsh winter months in Missouri’s rural Ozark wilderness, teenager Ree Dolly sets out to find her missing outlaw father, wanted for jumping bail. She faces this challenge whilst being left to look after her young brothers and mother, who is detached from reality with an impending eviction from the family home seeming ever more likely.
The book explores her coming of age facing a dark adult world with its own clan laws in a fascinating place that time forgot.
