'leaving the world' by douglas kennedy

the story of jane. starting as a child, ending as a grown up. falling in love, birthing a daughter, going thru separation, losing a child, moving on in her life meaning moving from the usa to canada, and then back.

douglas kennedy, the way he is able to write about a woman's life, i would thing this name is an alias for a female writer. most of the novels by him i enjoed very much. it is a story with 4 different stories in it's self. all about jane, but every part goes into a totally different direction. it seems you start a new book over and over again. that is what i liked best about this book, it just never ended, took lots of turns and twists. will read it again. hard to lay away. good bookclub material.
