Daisy Goodwill Flett has neared the end of her life, and, facing her impending death, reflects upon the entirety of her life spanning the 20th century. She is introspective and retrospective. She tells stories of being a daughter, being a wife, being a mother. More than being about particular events in one woman's life, this book is about memory, life, and morality. | ||
