An array of mid-20th Century women parade through the narrator’s life, who tells their partial early life stories as she remembers them, weaving her own story into the fabric of the whole.
Thus “Margaret Anne” remembers “old” friends, most of them from the fifties, sixties and seventies, whose lives at one time intersected with hers, then largely disappear to be replaced by others.
There are names like, Allison, Zelda, Ellen and Christina, all of whom reflect an innocence of a long-gone way of life. The book is semi-autobiographical, reflecting another era, the characters fading away like “old soldiers.” Almost all of them eventually have children who will live much different lives, in a sense, leaving their parents “in the dust” of a once gentle time that will never come again.
