Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
Every evening at five o’clock, Christina and Rudy began the ritual commonly known as Happy Hour, sharing drinks along with a love of language and music (she is an author, he a composer, after all), a delight in intense conversation, a fascination with popes, and nearly thirty years of life together. Now, seven months after Rudy’s unexpected death, Christina reflects on their vibrant bond—with all its quirks, habits, and unguarded moments—as well as her passionate sorrow and her attempts to reposition herself and her new place in the very real world they shared.
Review:
"Godwin's experience and skill...show in the absence of sentimentality, the seamless shiftings of time..., and the nicely calibrated mix of tragedy and comedy. The predominant note is certainly sad, but there's a surprising amount of humor....Intimate and touching, albeit not revelatory."
Kirkus, 02/01/2003
Review:"[A] slim, tender story....[T]here are moments...that threaten to turn treacly, but for the most part Godwin expresses her heroine's vulnerable state of mind with tact and delicacy."
John Hartl, New York Times Book Review, 04/06/2003
