Crossing to Safety
by Wallace Stegner
Marvelous and eloquent writing of the life of an author with the love of his wife and friends. It was about an author and his relationship and how it developed and endured many years and his wife's illness. It was also about their relationship with another couple who are very wealthy and brilliant and their struggles through the years.
It was an in depth and an intimate portrayal of the essence of friends and loves that read eloquently and satisfyingly. A true reason to read a book and escape into other worlds.

Super Economic facts of life in our U.S. Amazing information of thorough studies are highlighted in this book by a couple of geniuses. I love economics and stats. Of course many can be attacked as usual, but we have to honor the results given after these investigations.
Every Last One
by Anna Quindlen
What wonderful and sensitive writing this author reigns of. It is a tragic story, as all Quindlan's are, written with profound sensitivity, clarity and caring. It is of the mother as the protagonist, her family, a good husband, the complex dimensions of the family and then loss of most all of them. This was a meditation of loss, feelings, and attempts to move on. I was so drawn in to the depth of this book I was depressed while reading it. It is strange to me, that many books I read feel so shallow with just a cursory story. Then this author so obviously can manage to provoke the depth of me the reader's soul. I think it is the authors honesty with the characters feelings. Although sad, the book was a fine escape from my own reality, a lost in the space of words to go and languish within.
