Half Broke Horses: A True-Life Novel
Jeannette Walls's "true-life novel," in the Scribner paperback, reconstructs the life of her grandmother Lily Casey Smith, a horse-breaker, teacher, pilot, and rancher in the American Southwest. Walls channels the voice rather than inventing scenes, and the result reads like oral history disciplined into narrative. Scribner's edition is straightforward and unillustrated, letting the material carry itself.For readers who prefer their family sagas delivered by someone who broke horses, flew planes, and did not waste words.
