written and stunning debut novel by Amanda Coplin. I was really impressed with this book. It isn’t a fast paced novel by any means; it is more character-based than plot-based but the characters and sense of place are so exquisitely written that I did not want this book to finish.<br><br>Set at the turn of the century in a rural stretch of Pacific Northwest, a reclusive orchardist by the name of William Talmadge tends to apples and apricots. A gentle man who spends his time among his fruit trees when one day two teenage girls appears and steals his fruit from the market place. What transpires changes Talmadge’s life forever.<br><br>First of all, so glad I bought this book in Paperback and not downloaded to my kindle as the cover is stunning and really sets the scene for the novel. This is one of those books you want on your bookshelf. Having recently finished East of Eden by John Steinbeck I found coplin’s prose just as fresh and compelling and would certainly see how if you liked East of Eden you would enjoy the characters and pace of the Orchardist.<br><br>I especially loved the sense of time and place of this novel and I loved the detailed descriptions of the land and Talmadge’s work as an orchardist on the frontier. <br>While this isn’t a light novel I at no stage found it depressing. This is a story about loss and yearning and deals with some tough subject matter but I never felt Coplin dragged the story down with unnecessary graphic or ugly scenes.<br><br>This is a well written, slow paced, character driven novel with a storyline and characters that are fresh and complex. <br><br>A well deserved 5 star read for me. <span class="rating">( <img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/ss10.gif"> )</span></div><div id="rfd_274399240" class="reviewFlagDialogBox"></div><div class="commentFooter"><span class="reviewMods"><span class="reviewVoteInfo"><span class="reviewVoteCount" id="rvc_274399240"> </span> </span><span class="reviewFlags"> <img id="rfi1_274399240" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"> <img id="rfi2_274399240" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"><span id="rfrf_274399240"> </span></span></span> <span class="controlItems ci3"><a href="/profile/DemFen" target="_top">DemFen</a> | Oct 31, 2024 | <a href="/review/274399240"><img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/permalink.gif" width="16" height="7"></a></span> </div></div></div><div class="bookReview"><div class="bookReview_content"><div id="brtext_263373450" class="commentText brslop"><div class="brev_cover"><a href="/work/12340886" data-workid="12340886" class="" ><img src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0062188518.01._SX100_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg" srcset="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0062188518.01._SX200_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 2x, https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0062188518.01._SX300_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 3x" class="bookReview_cover cover" /></a></div><div class="commentHeader"></div>A very good first book but the beginning raised my expectations so high and the book didn’t live up to them. The premise of the book—turn of the 20th century and a lonely, sensitive man who has all by himself created a beautiful fruit orchard in the Pacific Northwest—Washington state?—sees two feral pregnant girls living off the fruit of his orchard. He tries to help them but they are wild with trauma. He’s a pioneer child whose Mother brought him west when the father died in a mining accident. The trip was dangerous, nearly impossible. He also has a sister but a few years after the mother dies when they are still teenagers, she disappears from the woods one day, leaving no sign but a basket and a bonnet. The beginning of the book crackles with potential—the danger women face, how men cause or are also crushed by it. <br><br>The book never solves the mystery of the sister. I respect that choice—it’s more true—but I kept hoping for something to energize this long book. All the disclosure is up front and then it’s just the main character worrying. <br><br>It’s a study in the fallout from trauma, how far it ripples out. The end is sad but lovely. The prose is often lovely. I couldn’t shake the feeling, though, that the realism and the book’s truly admirable ethic were winning out over Story. <span class="rating">( <img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/ss6.gif"> )</span></div><div id="rfd_263373450" class="reviewFlagDialogBox"></div><div class="commentFooter"><span class="reviewMods"><span class="reviewVoteInfo"><span class="reviewVoteCount" id="rvc_263373450"> </span> </span><span class="reviewFlags"> <img id="rfi1_263373450" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"> <img id="rfi2_263373450" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"><span id="rfrf_263373450"> </span></span></span> <span class="controlItems ci3"><a href="/profile/wordlikeabell" target="_top">wordlikeabell</a> | May 5, 2024 | <a href="/review/263373450"><img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/permalink.gif" width="16" height="7"></a></span> </div></div></div><div class="bookReview"><div class="bookReview_content"><div id="brtext_256758604" class="commentText brslop"><div class="brev_cover"><a href="/work/12340886" data-workid="12340886" class="" ><img src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0062188518.01._SX100_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg" srcset="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0062188518.01._SX200_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 2x, https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0062188518.01._SX300_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 3x" class="bookReview_cover cover" /></a></div><div class="commentHeader"></div>Almost a poem.

To me, this book felt like viewing a painting or photograph of her description, and thus I felt impressions of the characters from a very narrow distinct viewpoint, but not an overall understanding of them or ability to relate to them. <span class="rating">( <img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/ss6.gif"> )</span></div><div id="rfd_233303571" class="reviewFlagDialogBox"></div><div
