You will find a delightful cast of characters in this book. I picked it up on sale one day, not really sure if I would like it. I LOVED it! I absolutely loved the 2 older gentleman who took in the pregnant teenager. There is a second book to follow up with this (Eventide) which is equally as good and continues where this story leaves off. Read this one, you won't regret it.

This book revolving around a teacher on the verge of divorce with two sons and two bachelor rancher brothers aiding a pregnant teenager with no other means of support is absolutely touching and is a great read for any book lover. Other characters revolve around this teacher and these ranchers. This story inevitably leads to the teacher, his sons, the ranchers, and the teenager all sitting at the table of the ranchers' farmhouse. A story like as beautiful as this is amazingly told by Kent Haruf.

After reading bunch on plain books, "Plainsong" was like a breath of fresh air! The way Haruf builds his characters is amazing! What a wonderful, peaceful, lovely, hearty book. I couldn't sleep for hours after I finished it last night. Highly recommend!
