Silver Pages on the Lawn

This is the sequel to Nora Lourie Percival's first memoir, Weather of the Heart, which I loved!! This book covers the love story between MS Percival and her first husband, poet Herman Gund. I find Percival's history to be fascinating and am ever amazed with her ability to rise above all the travails life puts before her. This is a type of Romeo and Juliet love story carried out through a series of letters the lovers sent to each other during times of extended separation. Most compelling of all to me are the poems written by Gund which serve as section breakes between parts of the book. The ending is a surprise and a heartache which will linger long after the pages of the book are closed.
