The Great Man: A Novel de Kate Christensen
Mistress, widow and sister of famous Manhattan painter reveal his secrets to biographers. Feisty older (70's) women with opinions made refreshing reading and a well-crafted story.
A story of a fifty something woman, Rachel, who goes back home to Maine after the death of her mother. She hasn't been back for ten years and let her sister, Celeste take care of their very difficult mother during her last illness. Lots of angst.
Amazing book. Not sure why I liked it so much. Mainly the main character Rachel and the decisions she makes. Maybe her philosophy on climate change. Maybe her weird kindness. Maybe Aunt Jean. Even without an epilogue and things not tied up in a neat bow this was a great read.
Ah, midlife crisis. Bad girls in Mexico City. Christensen's writing is consistently a pleasure.
