We really don't get to know them all very well, just superficially, but isn't that how we know many of the people from high school? Each of these attend their 40th class reunion with ideas of who or what they are going to accomplish. Of course, that never happens but many of our favorite characters do end up on their way to a happy ending. not my favorite Berg novel. The characters were either boring, unfeeling & self-centered, or not there enough to save the novel for me. All the other novels by this author resonated with me, and stayed with me for days. Now, I was forced to leave the novel unfinished, as I could not stand the childish, self-centered way one of the min characters is acting, which is too much like someone I actually know. If my own experiences have tainted my reading of this book, I am sorry... but from the other reviews, I don't think that's the case. I can understand where a woman would be, mentally and physically, when her last big reunion comes along. I just couldn't go to mine, as I has been recuperating from almost dying from sepsis. My old BFF went, and took pics though, and it was nice.. but not the same as being there. Who knows, maybe I just don't want any other reunions to be ruined by the flavor of this one? IDK. ~2/3rds done, and may not finish it. sorry Berg... I tried. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
To each of the men and women in "The last time I saw you", this reunion means something different. A last opportunity to say something long left unsaid, an escape from the bleaker realities of everyday life, a means to save a marriage on the rocks, or an opportunity to bond with a slightly estranged daughter, if only over what her mother should wear.

At first I thought I liked it but by the end of it I think I found it sad and I think I was supposed to have the opposite reaction.
There's nothing here that would suggest NOT reading this one but nothing to compel me to recommend it either.
