Senior Insider
If you live or have lived in NYC, you will connect with this book. Of course, it is about so much more——relationships, families, neighbors and the delicate balance of social classes. With her usual fine character development, Quindlen draws the reader in and makes one question one’s own perspectives. Provocative and compelling—with NYC as the backdrop. As the principal character muses toward the end of the story— “New York City was all the strata of the earth. The old was covered over but it never disappeared.” Just as it is in life!
 
The old was covered over but it never disappeared.” Could be St. Barths, as well! Sounds like a great “read,” Julianne . . . thanks for the tip!
