I like the way a couple books can get a three-way conversation going. A few days of experience in the books can get me immersed and feeling like, yes these really are Friends of mine. After a few nights into A Lesson Before Dying by Ernest J Gaines and Diary Of A Country Priest, by Georges Bernanos, I felt a sort of companionship among the three of us owing, in part, to the personal conflict of these men as teachers in local, rural life. And I myself am not a teacher. I have lived rurally, however, for decades.
