To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Some days it was caskets. Others it was the heartbreaking beauty of the natural world such as he had come to know it. Often as not the consolidation of these topics was seamless and the names and particulars would race through his brain like a litany in code that only he could decipher. Elizabeth, goldfinch, Primrose Maple, hemlock, Helen, Mandarin Bronze, osprey, glacier, 18-gauge Perma-Seal, Autumn Oak, chickadee, trillium, Joan. The list always ended with Joan, his third wife, whom he’d burie...d last April in a Clarksville Princess Mahogany with a tufted dusty rose velvet interior, in Mullett Lake Cemetery between two blue spruce saplings he’d planted there. The naming gave him a sense of mastery, as if he’d had some say in all of it. When she had died in early January her body was kept in the cemetery’s stone winter vault, waiting for the frost’s hold on the ground to give way in the spring and the grave to be opened. “We don’t dig much after the deer season opens,” is what Harley Flick, the local sexton, told him, when the graves were arranged for last November, when Harold knew the end was near.
