Title: A Driven Life
Review: Mildred Pierce's life is driven by her determination to rise from poverty to a position of financial independence. Her "love-hate" relationship with her horrid daughter, Veda, (who she perhaps sees a bit of herself in) fuels this drive. Without education, breeding, or work experience outside the home she manages to achieve professional and financial success beyond her wildest dreams.But Mildred's wild ride from rags to riches is fraught with personal loss. Moreover, her illogical devotion to Veda threatens to thwart her good fortune at every turn. Her harrowing and surprising life journey will keep you riveted, for sure!Sarah Bruce KellyAuthor of VIVALDI'S MUSE, JAZZ GIRL, and THE RED PRIEST'S ANNINA
