Synopsis
This is a story about the power of redemption: how shattered souls can make themselves one again with the world. It is also a love story, outlining a journey across America in search of healing.
Michiko Kakutani
A sappy romance novel, gussied up with some sentimental claptrap about the emotional life of animals and lots of Walleresque hooey about men and women. About the only thing missing is a picture of Fabio on the cover.... Mr. Evans has absolutely no feel for the landscape he is describing and even less insight into his characters....It's a measure of this abysmal novel's deficiencies that Pilgrim the horse emerges as the deepest and most conflicted character in the book. Which is something you expect to find in a children's animal story, not in an over-hyped fable for adults. -- New York Times
