Fantastic Book
This book is quite possibly my all-time favorite. It is the story of a young woman named Maureen, from her childhood to old age. She begins life in Missouri just before the turn of the twentieth century, and you follow her life from her rather heated rendezvous with several lovers to her children, to things happening during her time. The author makes many points through the narrative. But this isn't a boring drivel of a biography of a fictional woman written by a man. She does not live in the same timeline as you and I...hers takes a decisive change around WWII...There is sooooooo much to this book...if you are a well-balanced, logical person like me, my father, and my boyfriend, you will absolutely adore this book. However, some people may not be secure enough in their own beliefs and self-concepts to handle many of the subjects referenced and broached in this book. However, I consider it not only an amazing read as an adventure and pleasure unto itself, but also a marvelous growing experience. Wonderful to find both in one novel ;D
