A review by hugh
Evening Class by Maeve Binchy

5.0

Absolutely loved this. I was expecting twee old-fashioned wholesomeness, and there is plenty of that, but much more too! The story follows all the people's lives touched by this Italian class, how their decisions and changes weave together. But also, it deals with a huge amount of social change and how the different characters cope, and it's kinda wonderful how they all find what a happy ending is for them, that it's not all "everyone finds their pre-ordained partner and gets married".
Also, Connie is totally asexual and I love her.
