Lucky Us by Amy Bloom240 Pages
Half-sisters Iris and Eva bond and survive during the 1940's in Bloom's latest work. Throw in a reprobate father, a couple of lesbians, a blues singer, a gay hispanic makeup artist and a jewish orphan and you begin to get the cast of characters in the book.
However, I should have known that if the critics were gushing I wouldn't care for the book. The characters are unsympathetic and fall flat to me. I could write more on this but I don't have anything nice to say about it.
