Hope's Cadillac: A Novel

by Patricia Page

Set in Houston in 1969, this sophisticated, artful, and moving story of one woman's struggle for wholeness and independence is utterly satisfying fiction--thoroughly grown up and filled with wit and style. When her straight-arrow husband splits, Hope Fairman--with the help of a richly drawn cast of friends (and lovers)--sets out to rebuild her emotional life from ground zero.

technically a DNF but I got far enough that I'm giving myself credit anyway. I really tend to push through no matter how much I'm enjoying (or not enjoying) a book, so the fact that I got 70% there and couldn't go any farther is pretty rough.
