My Thoughts:While reading a blurb on Audible.com about The Long Way Home: Chief Inspector, by Louise Penny, I suddenly realized I knew this main character! Off I went to check my library and sure enough, I had listened to this book! I don't know how long ago I listened to it but I had rated...just not written my review. But you gotta admit, that if I could remember the Inspector, the Three Pines community (and who done it) and more, it had to have been a memorable read (listen)!It was a good mystery with a very interesting cast of characters! Oh, Three Pines is really one of the characters! This is NOT a "cozy" mystery; one very well narrated by Ralph Cosham.I'm at a loss as to what more I can tell you without spoilers which I want you to be pulled along as I was!If the blur above or my excitement doesn't make you want to grab this one any any of its various formats, I don't know what else I can say other than you are missing a damn good book!P.S. For those who've not read my other views, I don't listen to abridged books...too much good gets lost! AND I adore writers who, while they write a series, make each book complete; without dangling the next one at the end; I adore Louise Penny!
Book 5: Solitude, Friendship, SocietyI skipped over The Brutal Telling, Louise Penny's fifth Chief Inspector Gamache Book, due to some readers' reviews that described it as brutal in destroying their illusions about Three Pines. I read it after the next three novels in Penny's series--but, having read it, I disagree that this book made Three Pines and its residents less attractive. From the very first novel in this series, Still Life, Penny depicted the Three Pines residents as quirky and flawed. In The Brutal Telling, their moral struggles come to the forefront. Peter struggles with what to advise Clara and Clara with whether to defend a friend if doing so means risking her dreams. Ruth's impulse to make a wild animal even tamer goes to ridiculous lengths, which she seems not to recognize in spite of her poetic insights into other characters' struggles. Characters, including the Gilberts who are new to Three Pines, are called on profitting at others' expense. Olivier's greed and lies are the central moral issues in this novel, and the tale of the Mountain King is a powerful allegory about greed and trust. At crucial points, characters reflect on what they need to be happy, which must be a major issue for Penny as she brought many of these characters to Three Pines after less happy lives elsewhere.In fact--although this is a police procedural in terms of tracking down the clues and arresting a suspect--this book could be considered a Louise Penny treatise on solitude, friendship, and society (or withdrawal from society). Three Pines is not on any map and is described in many of these mysteries as being found by only those who need it, and they often need it in order to escape the rat race or troubled relationships. In most of Penny's mysteries, we learn a backstory that explains a character's flaws (perhaps ironic for an author who has one character, Myrna, abandon her career as a psychologist as unfulfilling) and also explains why Three Pines is a refuge for that person. For her most important Three Pines characters, Three Pines is like an intentional community set apart from the outside world. Penny explores intentional community more explicitly in The Beautiful Mystery; but here, in addition to Three Pines, she has Gamache visit a remote Haida community on Queen Charlotte Islands; she describes the greed that almost destroyed that society, as well greed as a destructive force in Three Pines and for the villagers in the allegorical Mountain King tale. Thoreau's quote about three chairs from Walden, "One for solitude, two for friendship, three for society." is included five times in The Brutal Telling. Besides The Hermit, at least three other characters are described as choosing a solitary or removed existence over family and friends. Gamache says he only needs a second chair for friendship, for his wife Reine-Marie, in order to be happy; but I think he is wrong--he has a talent for society, for fitting into and appreciating each of the set-aside groups that Penny has created in her mysteries as locales for his detective skills. The only group in which he cannot fit is the corrupt upper echelon of the Surete, where "society" already has been destroyed by greed and lies. Fortunately, that looming specter is absent from this particular novel.Louise Penny not only develops characters who become real and develop from book to book, she carries their stories over from one book to later books. I do not know whether she has planned what will happen over several books; but, looking back (easier with the Kindle versions), she has usually dropped hints earlier of developments to come. As with the surprises that change the meaning of Clara's paintings, many of these hints go against what we think we know about the characters but, when understood, change our perception permanently. For example, in Still Life, four books previously, Penny describes Olivier very positively but also mentions, "The greedy antique dealer in him, which composed a larger part of his make-up than he'd ever admit..." and "beside himself with lust after Jane's home. He'd kill to see beyond her kitchen door." It is not giving away anything to state that the backstory in The Brutal Telling is Olivier's history, which accounts for his lies and secretiveness, which ultimately threaten the community. There are many lessons to be learned from this book, as well as some light-hearted moments (a duck in a raincoat?) despite the serious issues.Along the way, The Brutal Telling also arouses readers' social conscience (mistreatment of native peoples, prejudice against gays) and educates us about literature (Thoreau), art (Emily Carr), and music (Martinu). Very worthwhile.
This is the second Penny novel I read. The first one, I really enjoyed; this one not so much. Penny is a gifted writer, but in this book, she reminded me a bit of someone who gets carried away with their verbosity and forgets what they're trying to say. The book was very well written, but the mystery left me cold to say the least. And I'm not exactly sure that the motivation of the killer made a lot of sense.It reminded me of a film with great special effects (i.e., her verbiage), but a less than great script (her mystery).
What can i say? They just keep getting better and better. I can see why some people might be let down by this book but if your a realist or maybe try and think like one for a bit it may help you to understand this installment a little better. Life isn't always black and white. It's to be lived in a perpetual shade of grey. And sometimes your hand gets forced and you have to do something you don't want to do,well get over it and get it done!On top of all that is the writing. I'm finding more and more I'm seeking out authors who have that way of not just writing a good story but engaging the reader. It's not necessarily the story line that's especially "riviting" but the "fluidity" (if that's a word) of her pen that grabs me every time. Well done once again Ms. Penny.
For people who love literary fiction and mystery novels, I can't praise this series enough. I've read every book in it, and each was excellent. My favorites are Bury Your Dead (set in Quebec City) and The Beautiful Mystery (set in a monastery), but each book brings new poetry, more enlightenment, a bit of French vocabulary, all the while getting deeper into the beloved, recurring characters of "Three Pines," a fictional Canadian village that people find when they need it, and introducing new ones. It isn't necessary to read the books in order, but you'll probably enjoy the evolution of the characters even more if you do. I didn't think any mystery writer could replace Dorothy Sayers for me. I'm so glad to have found this one.
This Three Pines book was good but not great. The beginning was great --- very spooky and intriguing. But after that it seemed to stall and meander. I couldn't quite give it four stars because I got pretty lost trying to figure out the murderer's motivation. Penny certainly does like to describe what people are eating---which is fun, but at times I don't need to hear about turkey and brie sandwiches. Inspector Gamache continues to intrigue me, as do the member of his staff. I'll read more of Penny's work but am taking a short break.
