The Red Address Book will be full of interesting stories, memories of a life well lived. I am already invested in this book - just after reading the first few pages. To read about how a young woman was sent off to be a servant, forsaking school after her beloved father died - you just know the book will be interesting. Beginning with stories in 1928 and moving forward to present day - the tales of a woman who in her 90s, is considered frail and helpless. Her niece lives far away, yet Doris wants to write her memories of all the people in her red address book so that Jenny can hold onto Doris's memories and understand Doris's life.
I think that Doris will have so much to tell the reader - living through 2 World Wars, the Great Depression, moving from Europe to America - so many changes over 90 years. I am VERY excited to read this book!
We can learn from our elderly, and I am interested to read Doris's story!
