Moves along. Didn’t find a lot of things to ponder or that I wanted to write down. 

Didn’t seem consistent with Fred’s character or prior statements that he and Alice didn’t wait until they were married, especially considering the era. 

Parts were pretty predictable. Like the annulment.

I loved the characters: such strong, amazing, but realistically drawn women.
The setting too, was so well rendered. What an awful time and place. I'm sure the beauty of the place was supposed to shine through, but the dirt and poverty and hardship, and knowing those kinds of things really happened there and still happen all over the world, and that we all benefit from the misery of others, was tough.

Several times I had to skip a page or two to avoid traumatising content

a woman being beaten, a dog being killed

But reading about the friendship and the women's determination was wonderful.
