I honestly could not stand this book. I had to read this book as an assignment. Every night before I went to bed I was able to read less than 10 pages before I fell asleep from boredom. Hesse did do a good job describing the dust bowl, esspecially for not having lived there. Don't judge Hesse by this one book though, Music of Dolphins is a great book. The other titles by Hesse that you should stay away from are Letters From Rifka and Walk Two Moons, for they both were boring beyond comparsion (except to each other)

The book Out of the Dust is amazing to me. I found something that I can relate a lot of my emotions to. It gave me a new love for poetry! It uses it so efficiently!
