This review is from: Lady (Hardcover)

LADY, by Thomas Tryon, is one of my top five favorite books. Extremely well written,the reader experiences a young man's infatuation, the journey of discovery the sense of betrayal, and the forgiveness and understanding borne of true friendship and love. The overal theme of the book make it a classic worth being read over and over again. It never fails to pull at my heartstrings - I feel as if I lived in this neighborhood and knew these people. I've purchased this book a third time, having worn out the other two. A shame there will be no more - we lost a valuable author with Tryon's death.
