A lovely story! It is emotional, historical, very well written! It is a tale of the Great Depression...It is amazing to me how this tale relates to today's world (I am writing this review shortly after the election of Barack Obama... in the time of what could end up being the next great depression...quite frankly, I'm depressed already!).

All political jargon aside, this book is a step into the world that shaped the lives of my parents. Shreve's novels encompass and transcend eras in time without the limitations of historical novels.

Read it, and then go for a walk on the beach...look for that sea glass and pick up the pieces!
