A charming First Novel about ladies of an interesting age. I felt that I knew these ladies and eagerly followed their courageous change of lifestyle. I was sorry when I finished the book and it left me wanting to know how their lives continued. It made me wish that I could visit them in their beautiful and interesting part of America. Although this novel has a rather mild story line, it was a pleasure not to be bombarded with sex and violence. One fairytale aspect of the story is the description of the renovation being done on their house. Where does one find such clever workmen and helpful neighbours? I very much enjoyed this book and for the first time in my life I wrote to thank the author, saying that I was looking forward to her next novel and hoped it would be available in England.
