Book Review: Death Comes For The Archbishop by Willa Cather

Ochre and yellow, half shades of green between the sea and groves of olives, old, old tamarisks, and the rainbow flowers of quivering red tubes, Willa Cather conjures New Mexico as a dream that turns out to be true.

In “Thoreau the Meter: Transcendental Treks on the Noir Shift,” Joseph Ferguson writes about journeys on the road, albeit road trips, that weave in and out of Yonkers as though this city is a roundabout located on Main Street in the midst of America.

Patricia Vaccarino writes book reviews for love or money

I review many types of books: old, new, classic, genre fiction as well as literary fiction, and nonfiction. My fees are based on scale relative to word count and the complexity of the book. I write three types of reviews: Snapshot ($250), Standard ($350) or Scholarly ($550). My book reviews are balanced and fair. I post my reviews on multiple platforms.  It is important to note that my reviews are distributed to a proprietary list of book lovers, bookstores and the media.  Interested? email me patricia@prforpeople.com
