Susan Minot can write! I loved her phrases of a mind wandering. The book is of a dying woman's recollections of her life as she prepares to say goodbye all that she had been and thought and experienced. Touching, sad at times, and a reminder that one's choices could come back to haunt. Another clear observation is how little we really know one another--especially our parents. I recommend this book.
