The Good Husband

Rating:
Summary: I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Review: This book is wise, witty and endearing. Ms. Godwin has great emotional insight. The characters are varied and real: the larger-than-life Magda, awaiting her death from ovarian cancer; her devoted, altruistic mate, the former seminarian, Francis; Alice, searching for her life's meaning after the death of her baby; and Alice's husband, the self-absorbed novelist, Hugo. "The Good Husband" touched a chord within me.

Summary: Read this book
Review: This is one of the best reads I had all summer. It is a wonderful, poweful story that could easily be overlooked because of the title. I loved it.
