Grandmothers plus ...

Very well written book of short stories and all totally different. The third story was fascinating and provoked a good discussion at the reading group.

Not one that drew me in

Thought I was going to love this book. But I'm afraid it left me cold. Ms Lessing's writing is always of high quality but I felt no heart or connection.

Saw the movie

I enjoyed the movie Adore more than the story pf the grandmothers even though the movie was based on the book. However the second story was quite lovely and well written.
