Florence Gordon

Novel about 3 generations of women and the challenges they face at all stages of life, and the men in those lives. Loved Florence Gordon, the oldest as she seemed to have learned what all New Yorkers do: “I'll do it my way”. The youngest, her college age granddaughter, bonds with her grandmother over a summer and realizes Florence has a lot to teach her. Florence's daughter-in-law is the third woman, and spending a year in NYC from her home in a small Washington city, is trying to find herself again.

Really enjoyed it.

Oh my gosh! Florence Gordon. She's the cranky old lady we all want to be at seventy-five. Truth, above all else. Painful truth, usually. And not just to a few select folks, but them all. And to the end. Whew. Adore this book. C'mon, all you namby-pamby ladies out there...this book is for you, to buck up and take life on. And everyone else, well, I think you'll see a bit of who you could be.
