This was a difficult Book to rate.
The story began sad, intense and slightly confusing.
A woman had last her husband to a sudden stroke but
wasn't coping well even after a year's time.
Anna had been married thirty years. Her whole life
centered around her husband's schedule and her two
now grown - children. What life did she have left?
She was a professor who couldn't really function.
Her children had moved away. She seldom got to spend
time with her grandchildren.

This is a poignant tale of the search Anna made in
trying to connect with who she is now and what she
will do with her life. It portrays the many struggles
she went through just to survive and stay sane.
It is a story about self-discovery and painful
discoveries, never imagined, she now faced.

Anna enrolled in a college class of photography and
filming. Her partner and her determined to film their
documentary on a gay marching band in an upcoming
parade. Anna wondered if her partner was gay. It didn't
really matter.

The story was slow-moving and mellow but still a
well-written story with a lot of emotion and life
struggles.

Main points were Lesbian/gay community, hospice,
trust, grieving, loyalty, infidelity, and friendships.

I feel it deserves a book review of a strong Three
and a 1/2 Stars rating.

The book was generously sent to me for an honest book
review of which I have given.… (más)
