Intending to refuel on gas and coffee and just keep driving, she is drawn instead to a pile of discarded carousel horses at the junkyard next door. Her find begins a ripple of gossip, mystery, and a restorative journey for the horses, herself, and the curious collection of townspeople taking the  tumultuous 4-year ride of hope, patience and a chance to grab the brass ring. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“It’s not only the story itself—of finding beauty and belonging in the places—and people—where one least expects it, that makes The Carousel linger in the reader’s mind   long after the last page is turned. It’s the writing -the gorgeous, heartbreaking, lyrical writing. If I hadn’t been so caught up in the story, I would have stopped—again and again --just to reread the resonant, detailed, surprising, and beautiful paragraphs.  \u003cbr\u003eMaribeth Fischer, \u003cbr\u003eauthor of The Life You Longed For","brand":"A\u0026M Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47080913142000,"sku":"2940011926242","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940011926242_p0.jpg?v=1763551157","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940011926242","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
