This is the kind of book where you have to imagine yourself in the same situation in order to appreciate it. At first I was annoyed by how pathetic and helpless Sam is and just wanted to scream "get on with your life--it's not the end of the world." But once I imagined how I would feel in the same situation, I realized that Elizabeth Berg captured Sam's helplessness and frustration perfectly.
