Rich Characterisation
Hello BeautifulI became completely immersed in this story, largely because of how cleverly the characters are developed. It pays homage to 'Little woman' in that it describes the lives of 4 very close sisters, brought up Italian Catholic in small town America. In the interplay of their loves and lives, their very different characters all become so believable that the reader almost becomes part of the family. This in enhanced by the fact the the timeframe of their lives is the same as mine since they are born in the early sixties.
