Book Reviews of A Virtuous Woman (Oprah's Book Club)
Book Review: Beautiful language, strong characterisation.
Summary: 4 Stars
The book is written from the point of view of Jack and Ruby, each taking a turn in narrating a chapter.The language is typical of Kaye Gibbons, as are the strong characterisations of the protagonists.
Ultimately, it is the story of two people who, despite their differences, have a fantastic marriage and a very strong bond.
The ending is very emotional, as are the majority of the events within the novel.
