Another wonderful tale from Ann Patchett. If you haven’t already come across this author this is certainly a good place to start.
Lara is recounting a story about the time she dated a famous movie star to her three daughters as they are harvesting the family’s cherry crop with her husband Joe. Lara and Duke were actors in a production of Our Town during a summer festival in Tom Lake. This is a story of hopes and dreams and the resilience needed when things don’t work out quite as planned.
Read this book and enjoy.
