The Promise of Happiness by Justin Cartwright
Set in the United States and Cornwall, this is the story of five people - all one family - and how they each cope with an incident that affects all their lives. The characterisation is excellent (you may recognize traits in yourself or in your friends). The writing is almost blank verse, though you wouldn't know it, so fine does it flow.
(Joan Jackson - bwl 52 July 2009 )
