Title: Simply touching
Product review: This is a book that intrigued me when I read the excerpt on the cover, and I found it more than fullfilled the initial promise. It is quite touching, thought-provoking and very well written. It gives the reader insights into many life-altering moments and describes the friendship and love that evolve for a very special man. The juxtaposition of a youth in World War I and the life of an elderly man sorting through his memories in a nursing home will touch every reader's heart and deepest emotions. It is a story of courage and honor. I am still thinking about the passage that described Michaelangelo when asked why he had a chisel. His response was that he was going to "free an angel." This passage is representative of the wonderful "nuggets" in Losing Julia, which should be savored slowly. I look forward with great anticipation to reading every subsequent book written by Jonathan Hull.
