Did you think that Nunez spent the first half of the book stalling--on purpose--before getting to the heart of the story? It seemed to me like an extended essay, rather than fiction, but I guess that was on purpose.

I think Nunez was setting the stage for what was to come. The looming questions about life. Later in the book, it becomes obvious that life is far more meaningful to these two women who grow close and apart, The bonding of these two lapsed friends is touching as is the sometimes brutal reality of endings. A beautifully written book,

That's a really good hypothesis--I see what you mean! It explains what I felt like was meandering at times. Thank you.

You put into words what I thought but didn't know how to describe!
