Title: Great Writing, Little Substance
Review: This book is one of the most boring books I've ever read. There are enough ramblings for Mars and back. Carol Shields is a very good writer, but the underlying pretensions makes the book just another romantic potboiler. If you're interested in books about generations of families, read Marquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude.
