DESCRIPTION:
"Revelatory."—The Wall Street Journal"Constantine's stories ache with concern for the retreating, vulnerable, sacred natural world."—New York Times Book Review
Muriel Shindler said Five Stars. Excellent emotion word pictures. So many people brought to life on so few pages. Really an artist.. "Five Stars" according to Judith Holman. Strong acting and clever adaptation of the short story (which is even better)!. "Didn't enjoy" according to Pam Curry. I bought this book after seeing the movie Didn't enjoy Pam Curry I bought this book after seeing the movie 45 Years which is based on the first story in the book. I was hoping to get more insights for the movie but was astounded to find that the story was really only a fragment with little substance that I was seeking. Very disappointing. I then tried to get interested in the other stories but really couldn't. I will be donating the book.. 5 Years which is based on the first story in the book.
