\"The Photograph\"{

Not a long book, but lots of great discussion
subjects. Penelope Lively is a master at
characterization.....you can picture each
character in detail.

All That Is

Spilt decision on this book by our group. Some
found the episodic structure hard to follow, and the
main character is not interesting. Others loved
Salter's sentence structure, and the flow of the
book.
