reviewed On the Horizon by Lois Lowry

Beautiful and terrifying reflections on Lowry's time in Hawaii and Japan as a child and teen

5 stars

I was deeply moved by the descriptions of humanity and the way Lowry tries to unify and distinguish human experience.

Kenard Pak's illustrations are also the perfect pairing to Lowry's sparse descriptive prose.
