A must-read by a sensitive & reflective new author!
"South By Degrees" is a fascinating story of primarily two people coming together under unusual circumstances. They are part of the same family although not previously well known to each other. R. P. Poe, the author, has a strong sensitivity to people which he conveys extremely well in his writing. The characters are real and natural, and yet they have personality "difficulties," which prevent them from communicating effectively with each other. This book develops this relationship in many unspoken ways. The author's development of the setting, south Texas, and his covering so well the "feel" and culture of this area is outstanding! The fishing coastline, the hurricane, the architecture, his descriptions of Galveston island and the atmosphere of the whole area are very well done - he doesn't miss a beat. (Having lived in the area myself, these comments are well founded.) Looking forward to reading his other books. This one is a must-read...
