THE BESTSELLING NOVEL NOW A SUCCESSFUL MINISERIES STARRING SALLY FIELD 'Bess is so remarkable a character' NEW YORK TIMES 'A delightful reading of large, splashy doings in the small pond' KIRKUS REVIEWS 'Irresistible . . . nothing about it is ordinary' LOS ANGELES TIMES At the turn of the century, a time when women had few choices, Bess Steed Garner inherits a legacy - not only of wealth but of determination and desire, making her truly a woman of independent means. From the early 1900s through the 1960s, we accompany Bess as she endures life's trials and triumphs with unfailing courage and indomitable spirit: the sacrifices love sometimes requires of the heart, the flaws and rewards of marriage, the often-tested bond between mother and child, and the will to defy a society that demands conformity. Told in letters we follow the remarkable life of Bess from her childhood in 1899 to her death in 1977.

This book was one of the best books I have read in a long time. The characters are so memorable and the story stays with you long after you have finished reading this book. It's a short read and well worth the time. I am looking forward to reading more of this author's work.
