    WHO DWELT BY A CHURCHYARD
    BERRY FLEMING
    Who Dwelt by a Churchyard centers around an old man about to move, who—as he sits before a fireplace throwing ancient photographs upon the flames—recalls the major events in his life. It is a stunning, moving work, written with great economy, and yet so richly textured that it gives one a feeling of having digested a work of fiction twice its length: an end of life novel that i...
