 Peace Like a River (2001) Leif Enger "Wonderous and wise." |  The Tea Rose (2002) (Rose , book 1) Jennifer Donnelly "A splendid, heartwarming, novel of pain, struggle, decency, triumph." |  Here They Come (2006) Yannick Murphy "This is a hell of a book. You might not be able to finish Here They Come in one sitting, but it will haunt you till you do. What detail! What characters! I can imagine both Jane Austen and Raymond Carver poring over this masterly novel." |
