January 9, 2011 - All The Pretty Horses

Within the first thirty pages, I already got the feel of a western story. The physical setting is a big part in the story because of all the incredible details that the author includes. The run on sentences reveal themselves throughout the beginning of the story as well. The way that the story is written, jumping from scene to scene confused me at first, but it also makes the story more realistic. It shows that his life is just like any other humans, with different things going on in his life at one time. I'm also confused about all the people and who knew who and who is related to who, so hopefully that gets cleared up soon. It's interesting so far !
