The end had me in tears, too. Don't remember the last time a book made me cry like that! I just sent you an email about our plans for the weekend.

I have never so enjoyed a biography, either - he really gets to the heart of Yates and made me feel for him profoundly. I cried and cried at the end. I need to read more Yates - I have three more novels of his to read. I shall do it soon - I just don't want to run out of new stuff to read!<br /><br />Perhaps when you are in New York and if you have time we could meet for a cup of tea?!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-35807672740210683162011-05-22T20:11:39.054-04:002011-05-22T20:11:39.054-04:00Darlene - Hope you get a chance to read Revolution...Darlene - Hope you get a chance to read Revolutionary Road soon. I've really been enjoying Yates' novels. Have a good week.<br /><br />DS - "Bliss" was only my second Mansfield story, but it's convinced me to purchase a collection. My daughter can't wait to begin her second summer in the city!<br /><br />Reviewsbylola - I'm so happy to see more bloggers interested in Yates work. He was such a talented writer.<br /><br />Amy - I keep meaning to ask you the title of the Stegner bio. Have read three of his novels now and would like to learn more about his life.<br /><br />Staci - Hurray!
