The rich portrait of thoroughbred racing from every aspect is amazing. He successfully maintains his beliefs in various difficult circumstances. IN WHICH SMILEY PLUMBS THE WONDROUSLY STRANGE WORLD OF HORSE RACING. He has a spiritual approach to life and to training horses. 1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK A WISE, SPIRITED NOVEL. I would love to know someone like Farley Jones. If you could take any character from Horse Heaven out to dinner, who would it be and why? I do object to her pronunciation of Maryland, khaki, and a few other things that I can’t remember at the moment, but that are really odd. Her Irish accents are very good and some of her other voicings are interesting too.
What does Shelley Thompson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book? Every time I read this I am amazed all over again by how the author convincingly presents points of view of men, women, of various backgrounds, races, interests sexual orientation, etc.
The human characters are even more varied and rich. This book has horses and a dog that have their own opinions and points of view. Many authors have characters who all sound the same and you can’t distinguish one from the other in dialogue without "He said", "She said" labels. The author’s ability to change voices completely is astonishing. The rich portrait of thoroughbred racing from every aspect is amazing.If you could sum up Horse Heaven in three words, what would they be?īrilliant, observant, deep and fun (sorry, couldn’t do three) He has a spiritual approach to life and to training horses.
