Susan Minot can write! I loved her phrases of a mind wandering. The book is of a dying woman's recollections of her life as she prepares to say goodbye all that she had been and thought and experienced. Touching, sad at times, and a reminder that one's choices could come back to haunt. Another clear observation is how little we really know one another--especially our parents. I recommend this book.

I could not get past the fact that there is no punctuation in this book. I always finsish a book, not matter how bad it is because I have to know the ending. This is the only book that I have ever started to read and didn't finish.
