Book Reviews of The Great Man: A Novel
Book Review: A GREAT Book
Summary: 5 Stars
What a book. How unusual for an author to write about older women in their 70s and 80s, to make women this age the main characters, and to bring them to the reader as women who are still very sexual as they talk about changes in their bodies and remember the sexual experiences of their youth -
For any readers, especially women, who wonder about their mortality and how they will change as they age, this is a fascinating book.
