Title: Initially appealing, but eventually disappointing
Review: Since I was fascinated with the space program as a boy in the mid sixties I was particularly anxious to read the memoirs of a young girl whose family was a participant. The book jacket promised a "brilliant rendering of an era...of a whole country poised on the edge of...the future of NASA, the outcome of the war and women's lib." The use of the term "women's lib" instead of "feminism" should have tipped me off that this would be trivial, trite, and superficial, but I persisted. Finally, on page 160: "After Gretel left, no one scattered Kotex around the living room or ate all the Dixie cups from the trash can in the bedroom." That's when I realized that this book is the literary equivalent of Bertha's behavior and moved on to two superb books, Rick Bass' The Sky, the Stars, the Wilderness and Castle Freeman Jr's Judgement Hill. Buy them instead of Space.
