I see why this novel was a best seller! Very romantic story told very well. I ended up watching the film a year or two after I had read the novel and it does NOT do the novel justice. The characters of Waller's novel are multifaceted and vibrant, a roll Clint Eastwood simply does NOT properly fill in the film adaptation. Would recommend this sure to be classic for a nice winter week of evening reading.
