A friend of mine kept bugging me to read Nicholas Evans, and I finally gave in and got his first novel - The Horse Whisperer. It was made into a movie with the everbeautiful Scarlett Johansonn which I saw years ago and enjoyed, though it didn't leave any lasting impression. When it came to the book I wasn't impressed.With an interesting premise - girl coming back to health after an accident during horse riding, a "whisperer" called to heal the horse - it soon became cliched and predictable. TheThe horse whisperer, Nicholas Evans The Horse Whisperer is a 1995 novel by English author Nicholas Evans. The book was his debut novel, and gained significant success, becoming the 10th best selling novel in the United States in 1995, selling over 15 million copies. This also makes it one of the best-selling books of all time.The novel starts in upstate New York where a teenage girl, Grace Maclean, and her friend, Judith, go riding on their horses, Pilgrim and Gulliver, on a snowy morning.

I read this not long after it came out and had to read the book everyone was talking about! While I very much enjoyed the story, it wasn't one I knew I would "have to reread" at a future point in time. If you missed it, then you may want to consider this story. The writing was well done, there is a drama which unfolds with some romance. If you love horses, this is for you.
I don't like to see bad things happen to people or animals. Although I cringe when I think of an animal that has been hurt, I like to see it restored. The author tells a story of a young girl and her girlfriend on an early winter morning ride where tragedy strikes. Lives were lost. However some lived but with incredible injuries. The horse and rider + family must go through a restoration with the help of a man who has a gift with horses. The setting is beautiful Montana.
Grace was riding her horse Pilgrim in the snow which resulted in an accidenta horrible accident that cost someone their life. Both Grace and her horse are physically and mentally damaged from the accident and it will take some time for both to heal. Her mother, Annie, finds a man by the name of Tom Booker who begins working with Grace and Pilgrim. As time moves on, he and Graces mom, Annie, find an attraction for one another. The problem is that Annie is still married to Graces dad and they are
This title just popped up in a discussion thread and reminded me that I had read the book, after seeing the movie, with Robert Redford. I was very moved by the woman's struggle with her daughter and the horse parts were awful. I was satisfyied with the ending, but it was a little strange.
SPOILER ALERT: Details of the novel are revealed in this review.First of all, I saw the film before I read the book. With many works, that would prejudice my reaction somewhat, but I believe that this book and movie are so much alike that I can offer an unfiltered opinion.This is the story of a family that has been fractured by a monumental accident. Grace Maclean is a twelve year old girl, the daughter of very wealthy New Yorkers. Her father, Robert, is a lawyer and her mother Annie is a
