So states an unnamed narrator in Sara Greenslit's new novel As if a Bird Flew by Me. Celia lives in the contemporary Midwest. Ann is an accused witch, executed during the Salem witch trials. Two women separated by time and place, yet yoked by heritage and history. Set in three time periods, stories within stories unfold, and Greenslit's language seamlessly weaves Celia's modern life with the historical record of Ann's demise alongside dazzling renderings of animal life. Greenslit's hybrid of fiction and nonfiction occupies that rarest of airs: it is a book that illuminates, line by line and page by page, how it should be read.Normal0falsefalsefalseMicrosoftInternetExplorer4
