This is a beautifully written book. Julie's dance through the falling leaves made me feel like I was there. It is so sad that the way of life that was normal to Julie and her family is something that we have totally lost touch with. In today's world of run-away consumerism, it is hard to imagine that two people could live through a bad winter with only one trip to the store. Even fifty years ago, many people raised much of their own food. A hundred years ago, most people outside the cities had to.
The story of resentful, put-upon Julie and handsome, spoiled Hank building a strong marriage is believable and inspiring.
