One chapter into this biography of a book and can commiserate the relevance to today‘s torrid climate of isms and how, as a noted Faulkner quote, “the past is not dead. It‘s not even past.” Insightful, informative and very entertaining. Still, it‘s sad that it resonates so profusely so many, many years after it first struck a cord. It, indeed, still matters.
Alexandra helps an elderly couple get into a cab, accidentally taking one of their bags, in which cremated ashes reside. What follows is her attempt, with assistance from a taxi driver, to return the ashes. How could she know the past horrors or perils yet to befall its existence?
Had this been about 200 pages of descriptions less than its 477, it would have been marvelous. Still, I applaud her for this novel that will remain in my own memories
