A wonderfully moving story of a family of sisters and how their relationships ebb and flow as the years pass by. Though they encounter more than their share of love, loss, gains, and lows, their integral connection can be felt through all those that observe their actions.

I appreciated especially the authors note that detailed the research that went into this book from how one would obtain a PhD in history all the way to researching the town and the likely street the sisters would have lived on during that time.

A worthwhile read for any literary fiction reader.
