Even as little girls, Sarah and Emily are very different from each other. Emily looks up to her wiser and more stable older sister and is jealous of her relationship with their absent father, and later her seemingly golden marriage. The path she chooses for herself is less safe and conventional and her love affairs never really satisfy her. Although the bond between them endures, gradually the distance between the two women grows, until a tragic event throws their relationship into focus one last time.

This was a quick read. I read it for an upcoming book club meeting. It was the first of Richard Yates books that I've read although I did enjoy the movie Revolutionary Road. Having seen that movie, I expected this book to be similar in tone. For me, it was though provoking, serious and a little bleak.

Exceptional writing
If you appreciate fine writing then you will enjoy this book. Yates has a knack for writing about sad, disturbed characters, giving them a memorable persona. A simple story that makes you think about relationships and family ties...how they bind and how they can hurt.
