March by Geraldine Brooks Contest
I actually own two copies of March and so I thought I would give a copy away to my blog followers. I just finished reading March and I loved it. I highly recommend this book if you love Little Women by Louisa May Alcott. If you love historical fiction and are a lover of literature, this is a great book. March won the Pulitzer Prize in 2006.
Open internationally!
Synopsis from Goodreads:
From Louisa May Alcott's beloved classic Little Women, Geraldine Brooks has animated the character of the absent father, March, and crafted a story filled with the ache of love and marriage and with the power of war upon the mind and heart of one unforgettable man (Sue Monk Kidd). With "pitch-perfect writing" (USA Today), Brooks follows March as he leaves behind his family to aid the Union cause in the Civil War. His experiences will utterly change his marriage and challenge his most ardently held beliefs. A lushly written, wholly original tale steeped in the details of another time, March secures Geraldine Brooks's place as a renowned author of historical fiction.
"A very great book... It breathes new life into the historical fiction genre [and] honors the best of the imagination." Chicago Tribune
"A beautifully wrought story about how war dashes ideals, unhinges moral certainties and drives a wedge of bitter experience and unspeakable memories between husband and wife." Los Angeles Times Book Review
"Inspired... A disturbing, supple, and deeply satisfying story, put together with craft and care and imagery worthy of a poet." The Cleveland Plain Dealer
"Louisa May Alcott would be well pleased."
The Economist

This is a great start to the poem! I really enjoyed reading it. And I think the idea of a 100 day project, especially a poetry one, is awesome! I hope it goes well and that you have fun!
