As Close to Us as Breathing by Elizabeth Poliner
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
It takes some mental agility to keep up with the book’s bouncing between decades and characters. I appreciate that style. I would have liked to know a little more of some of the lesser characters’ points of view. I use that word “lesser” with some hesitation because I’m not sure who the main characters are. Perhaps the main character is the family as a whole.
Worth reading.
