A great book should leave you with many experiences, and slightly exhausted at the end. You live several lives while reading.
–William Styron

If you are a reader, you’ll understand that quote, and if you’ve read Patrick Smith’s novels, you will have experienced it. A Land Remembered is Smith’s best known novel but all of his books will take you on a wild ride in your imagination. Whether you go on a Merchant Marine freighter in World War II in The Seas That Mourn, go back to the deep South in The River is Home, follow old Charlie Jumper fighting a battle he cannot possibly win in Forever Island, travel with Smith and his wife Iris in the Soviet Union in In Search of The Russian Bear, or any of Smith’s other books, you will emerge at the end a changed person.

There are simply some books that you don’t lend out. “A Land Remembered” in particular. Six months later, you still have a hole in your bookshelf. If you treasure your books, you are angry at a friend, and he or she is too embarrassed to mention that he or she hasn’t returned your book because someone else has it and they can’t remember who took it from them.

On the accounting side, the money you spend would be the equivalent of taking someone out for a good lunch. Imagine the difference between that and the hours and days of enjoying one of Patrick Smith’s books, and knowing on top of it that it was a gift.
