Title: A Novel of Emotional Truth
Review: Elizabeth Berg has spun a tale so compelling and full of emotion. What We Keep is the story of mothers and daughters, distant yet close. Berg examines the mother-daughter relationship and it impacts every faucet of life.Berg dedicates the novel to women who risk telling the truth. This is a very strong statement that one can only fully contemplate as they finish What We Keep.We meet Ginny as she is flying to meet her mother that she has not seen for 35 years. As we travel with Ginny the reader gets to day dream with her as she recollects her time with her mother and the impact that her leaving has had on her life. The novel is narrated by both present day Ginny and Ginny at 12 years old as she relives the summer that changed her life.A great literary talent, Berg is an author that does not disappoint. What We Keep is a compelling novel that will have you anxiously turning the pages.
