Sandwich

 Fiction by Catherine Newman


In this story a family goes to Cape Cod for week in the summer, as they have done every summer for more than twenty years. There are two grown children and two elderly grandparents. Nothing much happens over the course of the week, but the point is the relationships.

This is an emotional novel from the perspective of an empty-nest mother, which is a perspective I can definitely relate to. I liked the book, and much of it resonated with me. I did kind of wish there was more plot.


I also read by this author:  We All Want Impossible Things

( I KNOW I've read this book, as I recognize both the cover art and the synopsis, but there is no entry for it in this blog. I must have forgotten to log it; how irritating of me! )
