Anita Shreve's books are very popular at the library where I volunteer, but I've never read one. So I was pleased to find this. Thanks, readingtrix!
This is a summary of the book from amazon.co.uk: "When Linda Fallon and Thomas Janes meet at a writers' festival in Toronto, it is the first time they have seen each other for twenty-six years. Theirs is a story bound by the irresistible pull of true passion - a love which begins in Massachusetts in the early 1960s, is rekindled in Kenya in the mid 1970s and which is about to play out its astonishing final episode. Written with reverse chronology, Anita Shreve's new novel is a haunting story of mesmerising beauty, with a strong narrative pull that inescapably draws the reader in, and leaves its most stunning revelation until the very last pages. Brilliantly ambitious and powerfully written, THE LAST TIME THEY MET is a tale not so much of life, but of a life not lived."
I'm just not going to get to this soon - too many books to read. So I decided to send this to Millycat, who won Lippycow's sweepstakes. Hopefully she hasn't read this yet - didn't see it among the other Anita Shreve books on her shelf.

Great! an Anita Shreve I haven't read! Thanks klaradyn. I may be working in Dublin for a few weeks soon, so this will probably get read on the plane and maybe released in a third country for you. Anita Shreve is one of the authors I discovered through book crossing and I always enjoy her books.
