There is something so addicting about Grau's writing, her prose is wonderful and the story flows very easily. There are holes in this story, but while reading I became so involved in her wonderful story telling ability that wasn't until after that I spotted a few things I would have liked to be different. The story is about Baby, the men who find her, the nuns who looked after her and later her daughter. I felt a remove from the characters in this one, but her characterizations are so great that this did not lessen my enjoyment of this story. While I can't say that I really liked these characters, I can say that I admired them. Baby came from nothing and built herself and a business into a very successful something.
I sometimes think that if an author can really write, they can make almost anything interesting. This author can write. ( )
