5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 1 Jul 1999
By A Customer
I read this in a day & thoroughly enjoyed it. In true Lurie style she examines how different poeple deal with mortality. Witty, well written and excellent characterisation. However, the end was somewhat predictable, but nontheless, highly recommended.
