The Distance Between Us is a well written novel from the author of Hamnet, and an interesting book in both plot and style.

Before We Were Innocent by Ella Berman
This is a startling book. For those of us in an older generation, it will be uncomfortable. It is skillfully written, though certainly not a Pulitzer Prize winner, portraying an event and its aftermath in the lives of three 18-year-olds. The girls have just graduated from high school and are spending the summer in Greece, at the vacation home of one of their families. The narrator, Bess, is the least affluent and the least confident of the trio, cursed in a sense with an overactive conscience.

What an extraordinary piece of writing–though not one for easy reading when you’re tired, or for passing the time in an airport while waiting for a flight.
