Ann Hood...Anita Shreve...Anne Tyler...We all have our favorite authors. You know you will get a good book from these authors, though you never know exactly what form the story will take. I like that.
Ann Hood's The Obituary Writer did not disappoint. Two stories converge in The Obituary Writer, one the story of a young expectant wife in a Kennedy-dazzled 1963 America, and the other the story of a Victorian age woman desperately seeking her lover after the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake. The stories are loosely connected and yet both can stand on their own.
If you've liked other Ann Hood novels, I feel pretty confident you will like this one, too.
