A Student of Weather
reviewed on + 379 more book reviews


This novel portrays one woman from childhood into middle age whose obsession with a man 15 years her senior began when she was nine, and ended with a child born out of wedlock and an alienation from her sister, who was infatuated with the same man. This man's apparent charisma allowed him to find a way to make an indelible mark on both of the sisters' hearts. What a waste of both women's lives - one that ended tragically and too soon and the other left with the remnants of tattered relationships
