Title: Good discussion book
Product review: This book is well written and held my interest, but I must say up front that the overall air of the book is melancholy. My book group is reading this book right now, and I know it will provide for a lively discussion. The setting, a home for "unwed mothers" in rural Kentucky, is brought to life clearly and beautifully. The two main characters, Rose and Son, are interesting and unusual. The book reveals how the choices they make when they are young stay with them the rest of their lives and are passed into the life of the child they raise together. The weakest feature of the book for me was that I had trouble believing that Rose and Son would really make some of the life decisions that they did.
