Lita - the strong, in your face, make no excuses female character is to be liked. There were more humorous scenes in this novel as compared to "Dead Above Ground". For example: When Lita slaps Aunt Dot so hard it sends her to the ground (she deserved it). Throwing the oyster loaf all around the hospital room and the nurse having to break it up (page 136-137) FUNNY, or at the funeral when it's revealed that Gloria (Stepmother) has a will claiming ownership of the house, but rather than confront Gloria themselves they tell Aunt Dot whom takes care of it as they pull away from the church in the hearse (page 188-189) HILLARIOUS! I really enjoyed this book and "Dead Above Ground". I look forward to more from this author. ( ) Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
In this sequel to his acclaimed "urban masterpiece" (The Philadelphia Inquirer), the national bestseller Dead Above Ground, Jervey Tervalon's unforgettable heroine, Lita Du Champ, is at loose ends, trying to hold house and home together. Ten years after she, her husband, their children, and her twin sisters moved to Los Angeles, the past comes back to haunt her. An unwelcome phone call reveals that Lita's estranged father is on his deathbed and that her aunt has seen Lita's beloved mother -- never mind that the woman has been dead for a decade. Overwhelmed by long-suppressed memories, Lita realizes that she must return to New Orleans to come to terms with her history, but as she makes the journey a growing sense of dread takes root in her soul. She's certain there will be no simple return to the life she led in Los Angeles. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
