I listened to the audio book of Next to Love and really enjoyed it. It is a wonderful look at small town America during the Second World War and the way the War affected people for years to come. The story takes place in a small town in Massachusetts where Babe, Millie and Grace grew up. Now America is going to war and things are going to change quickly and forever. I thought Feldman did a great job of describing the atmosphere of the times. Naturally there is love and loss (of innocence and of men). The book continues through the years with these women and their families. America is changing and so are they. If you like to read things with an historical perspective, check out this book. I don't think you will be disappointed.
