Cavedweller Book Reviews
Cavedweller by Dorothy Allison Book Summary
From the author of the "flawless" (The New York Times Book Review) classic Bastard Out of Carolina comes Cavedweller, once again demonstrating Allison's umatched strengths as a storyteller. Reading "like a thematic sequel" (The New Yorker) to her first novel, Cavedweller tackles questions of forgiveness, mother-daughter bonds, and the strength of the human spirit.
When Delia Byrd packs up her old Datsun and her daughter Cissy and gets on the Santa Monica Freeway heading south and east, she is leaving everything she has known for ten years: the tinsel glitter of the rock 'n' roll world; her dreams of singing and songwriting; and a life lived on credit cards and whiskey with a man who made promises he couldn't keep. Delia Byrd is going back to Cayro, Georgia, to reclaim her life--and the two daughters she left behind...Told in the incantatory voice of one of America's most eloquent storytellers, Cavedweller is a sweeping novel of the human spirit, the lost and hidden recesses of the heart, and the place where violence and redemption intersect.

Not her best. Characters seemed somehow stilted. Moved pretty slow. Got through it but not her best. Maybe she's better at writing about misery than about happiness?
excellent novel about consequentions of actions. Cavedweller is a novel filled with strong women, but these women are strong because they have been hardened by life. Despite that, the women are ultimately sympathetic. Allison tells the story of these women mostly through dialogue which is believable and at times lyrical, and each of the women is unique in not only voice but in how she deals with loss, pain, and anger. While there are some key men are the cause of the women's pain or were just weak, fortunately Allison didn't feel the need to demonize them or to paint all the men as such. I found the novel to be a great story about living with the consequences of our actions, and how those consequences impact others on a deeply profound level. Allison created a great world inhabited by great characters who kept me surprised, interested, and ultimately satisfied.
