Title: Waxwings? Why waxwings?
Product review: I see that most of Waxwing's reviewers were Seattleites. As an ex-Seattleite, I loved the nostalgia the book presented.But that ending? The (bird) waxwings devour all the berries off the bush outside the main character's window. No previous mention of waxwings in the book (except, of course, for that title!) So what was the significance? I realize it's symbolic, but symbolic of what? The main character's life had dipped into shambles, but by the ending he is recovering very nicely, thank you very much. Those other reviews seemed to gloss over the ending, but I have to confess, I do not understand it. Help!But, in spite of that, I enjoyed it a lot.
