When we were birds by Linda Breeden

This book is steeped in the melancholy of small town America. The history and beauty of the Northern region of the country comes alive with characters that will resonate in most people.

Here is a great line from a poem called The Mine, which is about 26 men who were trapped in a copper mine for several days.

“….The need for each other that clung to us as if we might be, each one, the other’s savior – our shared fortune greater than the fate of singularity.”
