Hilda and Pearl de Alice Mattison
Memorable excursion on voyage of self discovery. Sister-in-laws find love and forgiveness.
I have no review, beyond saying that I stalled on this book a few dozen pages in, and completely lost interest.
3.5 This seems to be a frequent genre for me: decades-spanning stories of close relationships and how they age. I'm not 100% sold on this one; it frequently felt like there was a veil between me and the characters, or between the characters themselves. It's as though their introspection and selfishness insulates them from each other and makes the action feel muffled.
