"Well constructed, thoroughly believable, the plot involves a man who leaves his wife unexpectedly - even to him - and without notice drives off because he feels he must. His innermost thoughts revealed during the weeks that follow, one can't help empathizing with him every step of the way. A professor of English, he writes so well that every page is a pleasure and one hopes that his students learn how he does it. I'll have to check out more of his novels."
"Could not get involved in this story. I didn't even finish the book. I stimply had no interest in the characters and therefore no interest in what was happening to them."
