Reseñas
El Mar 29 2018, The Old Library Bookshop dijo:
I had read a short story based on this novel in The New Yorker a year or so ago, and Sr. St. Saviour won my heart. Walking home after a long day begging for funds for her order of nursing sisters, feet aching and longing to empty her bursting bladder, the 60-something-year-old nun enters unbidden a smoky building where a young man has just committed suicide by turning on the gas. Sister determines to lead the way forward for his surviving wife, Annie, and young daughter, Sally. Sally becomes the convent pet after her mother takes a job working with Sr. Illuminata in the laundry in the basement of a convent set in the heart of mid-century Brooklyn. It is Sally's story, and that of her mother's friend, little Sr. Jeanne, that takes center stage in this beautiful little novel, a tale of the paradoxes and sacrifices that love of God and of other frail human beings entail.

Sobre Vintage-Books
Welcome to Vintage Books, an independent family owned bookstore and mail order business. We have been serving book-lovers and auto enthusiasts for 35 years. We've always put our priority where our hearts are: the best book selection we can offer and the most knowledgeable, dedicated staff. Our staff are all passionate readers-- the diversity of our preferences can be seen on our "staff choices" shelves. We work hard to make your book buying experience easy, and treat your books with the care we would treat our own. If you were to visit our physical store, you will find us to be pretty low key. Plain pine bookcases, old rugs, old chairs and a small couch in the children's area. Blank vertical surfaces are covered with old ads, sayings, booklists and displayed books. We are unable to list our extensive selection of used paperbacks, some of the automotive items and hardbacks on-line, because our inventory changes daily.
