3.5 stars. A book of family betrayals, love, tenderness, and forgiveness. The story bounced along much as memories do, dwelling first on this memory from age 5 and that one from age 16. It was a beautifully wrought picture of a family in all its glories and shames. I so wanted that specific resolution...but that is a me problem.
