The timelessness, the internal focus of a woman talking to herself reminds me of The Wall, which I recently read, yet The Clearing is more realistic, has more of a dramatic focus.
I love the north woods and so loved parts of this. " It surprised her that she was at peace, even happy, as she set the blade of the axe into the trunk of the tree and heard the echoes of those blows ringing far into the woods...Her world ended at the edge of the clearing--nothing else concerned her. But within her space she felt a connectedness with everything she could see or sense. The hard, brilliant sky, the snow, the dark shapes of the trees, the animals who shared this world of cold with her." (p 41)
Though I rate it highly, this is not a book I'll keep or read again because I don't want to return to that place. ( )
