review 1: I originally picked this up because of its title. As someone who Loves the composition "Clair de Lune" by Debussy, I couldn't resist. This book is interesting, and the reasons I gave this book only three stars are because of typos and some plot holes. But I don't think this book was actually finished by Jetta Carleton. It was published post mortem. To that, I say this book is beautiful. The words move like poetry, or more importantly, "Clair de Lune." It gives a unique point of view of the time period this book was written.
review 2: I felt this book was a good read. It was rather light, easy to follow, and subject matter not too deep. Fun reading a young woman's ambivalent move from irresponsible childhood, to the maturity of a junior college teacher in a sma... morell town in southwest Missouri. She did have some rough spots and also had the "usual small town "witch" who felt her job was to monitor all young women in the community for any "errows of her way" Much to Anna's benefit, Anna did have a dear old,retiring professor who in his kind, compassionate way, helped Anna to recognized the recklessness of some of her behaviors. He was also responsible for protecting her against the usual gossip, and make it possible for Anna to continue her job. This was very important during the times of the War in the 1940's.i less
