Le Paradis des Chevaux

Jane Smiley's insights really brought the world of racing to life. I'm curious if her research was based on personal experience or extensive interviews.

The way the story humanizes the horses made me wonder if others felt the same deep empathy or saw them more as characters than animals.

There’s a mix of excitement and discomfort that made me think about the real costs behind the sport. Did others find this tension compelling or conflicting?
