Despite some lulls along the way the book is very good
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
Coyle sets out to discuss two very topical issues in today's American society, racial strife and Alzheimer's. Her look at both topics is insightful. The characters are the book's strongest suit. At times the action slows to a plodding pace, but all in all the book was enjoyable.
Clarity of detail and character render this book outstanding
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
The author's ability to crystallize the details of experience generates clear understanding of a handful of characters whose lives and generations are intertwined. This is a must-read for those with an interest in generational and racial issues and the hope that lies in addressing them.
