In the third and last section of Half Brother, the plot should have started heavily picking up, but even at the end of the book, the plot progresses at a snail's pace. There is an argument to be made on how slow plot progression is a characteristic of a well-written book, but when it’s consistent throughout the entire book it just makes for a dull experience.

Memories, with or without context, play a key role as plot devices in both Away from Her and “Bear Came Over the Mountain.” Used to provide context for their only semi-chronological story lines, memories in the story and movie alike give solid glimpses of the past that allow the plot to move forward. One of the most prominent memories, in both the story and the movie, and certainly the clearest of the latter, is the section in which Grant and Fiona go on a walk/ski in a park. The substantial…
