Book Reviews of One True Thing
Book Review: A Statement for our times, our families
Summary: 5 Stars
I simply could not put the book down. I carried around the house, to bed, and on short drives (I wasn't driving). Ann Quindlan has a way with words, a method of capturing the American experience. In some ways I felt that Katherine's death was a metaphor for the operations of the familiy itself. You see, I have a father who is very similar to Ellen's - though I am more like Brian & Jeff. However, my siblings and I acidly joke that my father would be no good if my mother were to ever come down with a terminal illness. The book was well-written and most of the characters were well-drawn. Jon and Brian were pretty 2-dimentional but I got over that pretty easily. Great book - I've been scouring the web for more like it and more from the formidable Ms. Quindlan.
