And why had Lily hesitated at the end when I asked her the name of her college boyfriend? It felt as though she didn’t want to tell me. She’d told me that it had been a long time ago, but it wasn’t really. She was only in her late twenties.
Is she?? When does this take place? How did her dad come to the US in the late 1960s and get her mom pregnant seemingly not long after if she’s only in her late 20s when this book takes place?
