Weigh Up Based On Books Still Life with Bread Crumbs

So incredibly late to the party on this book and this author. But I loved it. The central struggle of what it means to remain relevant as an artist -- and a woman -- and how one must continue to examine the evolution of those things felt incredibly poignant to me. And the world of this novel was so richly imagined. I wanted to live in the community the author created!

The feminine side of me is well represented in my reading choices. How do I manage to select books to read that turn out to be chick lit? I usually dont figure it out until I see that most of the GR reviews are by women and then I sigh and say, Another one. I first read Anna Quindlen when she had an occasional column on the back page of Newsweek. Although I do not normally read regular columns, I looked forward to the issues where she appeared. So when I saw this eBook on my online library, I

I have been a Anna Quindlin fan since reading the first few sentences of Black and Blue 10 or 15 years ago. I still remember getting chills reading about the abusive husband's butterscotch syrup voice. I was hooked. One of Anna Quindlin's many talents is creating complex and relatable characters. She's done it again in Still Life With Breadcrumbs with Rebecca and her new friend Jim Nates. Even the dog is worth caring about. This not a fast paced action packed plot driven story. It's interesting

I really love Anna Quindlen. She tells a story in such a light and easy way that you can be fooled into thinking it has no deeper meaning, but then when it is done you realize there was a lot of meat beneath the contemporary styling. Still Life with Bread Crumbs is the story of 60 year old divorcee Rebecca Winter, who has enjoyed a life as a recognized artist (photographer--which of course appeals to me), but whose career is on the wane and whose income can no longer keep up with her expenses.

3.5/5While this is characterized as a "love story" in its summaries, I would have to argue that this is less a love story than a story of a woman discovering life at 60. She shares less than a handful of conversations with the man she falls in love with throughout the book, making the relationship feel less credible than it should.My favorite part of the book was the humorous side stories and anecdotes, which gave the story life it otherwise wouldn't have had. These side stories give you a sense

I liked, but didn't love this book - it was a super easy read (despite the fact that it took me nearly a week to get through it.....my concentration is shot recently). One thing I absolutely loved about it was the focus on Rebecca's finances. I know, I know, sounds boring, but it was so true to life. In so many books if money is discussed it is because the subjects are either incredibly rich or in extreme poverty. Rebecca wasn't yet poverty stricken but still had major money woes throughout the
