I first discovered Charles Dickenson with his totally wonderful novel "The Widows' Adventure." This novel is just as well written, while not quite as winsome. I love stories that truly develop their characters, and which contain characters about whom you care. Dickenson seems to be one of those authors, like Anne Tyler and Anne Lamott, who can accomplish this effortlessly. This is a good read, and the ending sweet.
