A review by kkraus
The Aviator's Wife by Melanie Benjamin

3.0

Like many people, I adored "Gift from the Sea." In fact, we even had a reading from it at our wedding. I suspect that once you've read "the original" that it can be hard to admire an imitator. And at first I didn't much admire this book. But it grew on me, and I came to appreciate that the author managed to maintain some of the reticence of the subject, and appeared to express accurately her feelings.
