When the author mentions her OWN books in a fictional story, I'm out. Also seemed very whiny. Very readable....but....somehow the idea that Martha was "gracious??" I'm afraid I'm perplexed, to say the least, with her "activities." I'm not sure what this has to say about being "neighborly." What kind of future does this leave for both Martha, and for her neighbor, Minnie? An odd one for both of them. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
"Martha Hale is an affable wife and mother who lives in an affluent neighborhood of well-tended lawns and high expectations. If only her clumsiness at penetrating the social circles of her neighbors weren't making Martha so lonely. That's why she's thrilled when the glamorous Minnie Foster, a former high school classmate, moves in next door. Despite Martha's determination, picking up where they left off is trickier than anticipated--especially when their memories of the past don't always align. But Martha is undeterred. In fact, her preoccupation with Minnie's life, her success, and her marriage is becoming an obsession. When she sees a darkness and shame hiding inside Minnie's perfectly deceptive home, Martha realizes that not even Minnie's secrets are what they seem. Visceral, sharp-witted, and deeply empathetic, A Gracious Neighbor explores the judgments women pass on one another and the ills of a society curated to keep them on the outside looking in" -- Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
