If you are a fan of the brilliant Reynolds Price's writings like I am, you will particularly enjoy this novel. He writes so beautifully, and so conversationally, that you feel like you are living with the characters right along with them. I admire such a novelist who can do this. The man can really tell a story!

This is an in-depth story of one woman's life which begins when she is a young woman and extends through her 90 years of living. It was amazing too me how well the author, who is a man, understood the trials and tribulations and ways of thinking that this woman had to endure and survive. I think I'd like to try another one of this author's books.
