Horse Heaven is a funny, passionate, and brilliant novel by Jane Smiley that dives into the world of horse racing. The story is woven into a marvelous tapestry of joy and love, chicanery, folly, greed, and derring-do.

The characters are as exquisite as they are haunting. Rosalind Maybrick, the wife of a billionaire owner, suddenly finds her life transformed in ways she never anticipated. Then there's Tiffany Morse, a 20-year-old stuck in her job at Wal-Mart, who prays for a change and gets more than she bargained for.

Don't forget Elizabeth, a 62-year-old theorist of sex and animal communication, and her best friend, Joy, the mare manager. They all revolve around the horses: two colts and two fillies with the potential for greatness. Justa Bob, the plain brown horse who wins by a nose, and Mr. T., a horse with amazing talents, add to the mix.

Even Eileen, the Jack Russell terrier with real convictions, plays a significant role in this strange, compelling, and sparkling universe of horse racing. This book is a veritable celebration of the sport, depicted with verve, originality, tenderness, and sheer exuberance.
