The Pull of the Moon
3 journalers for this copy...
From the back:
Sometimes you have to leave your life behind for awhile to see it and really live it freshly again. In this luminous, exquisitely written novel, a woman follows the pull of the moon to find her way home. Sometimes humorous, sometimes heartbreaking, always honest, The Pull Of The Moon is a novel about the journey of one woman - and about the issues of the heart that transform the lives of all women.
- I know many people have read this book and found Nan to be a hero. I think she sounds like a nice person, but not a hero. The book was written in a series of letters to her husband, and entries in her journal - so those did make for interesting reading. But when all is said and done, I wasn't nearly as thrilled with it as I've heard others being.

Sending to Valentina1209 for 'Say When' by Elizabeth Berg. Hope you enjoy the book!
I found this book in my mailbox upon my return from mailing Say When to you this afternoon! As we are both on a quest to read all of Elizabeth Berg's books, this is an awesome trade! Thank you! (btw- when I was a teenager, my first job was at the public library, and one of my duties was repairing books, so I can easily fix the separated cover and loose pages!)
wow - what can I say? This novel resonated so strongly within me. Nan's living out the midlife journey I fantasize about, as I am at a similar place where I feel I've lost the essence of who I am over the years of routine living. So many of the thoughts she so eloquently expresses in her letters and journal entries reflect my feelings. It was uncanny. I love the way Elizabeth Berg writes, with such vivid descriptions of nuances that we often overlook as we pass through our everyday lives. Her appealing and lyrical style is one I aspire to write in.
I read Elizabeth Berg's A Year of Pleasures a few weeks ago, and found the theme to be remarkably similar to this story, yet told in unique ways through different characters.
