  What We Keep by Elizabeth Berg

  Mennonite in a Little Black Dress by Rhoda Janzen

    Flying to see the Mother she hasn't seen in 35 years, Ginny revisits her childhood and the painful choices and events that have kept the family apart for three decades. Berg is at her best parsing the close personal relationship among women.   After her husband ditched her for a guy he met on the Net and a drunk teenager demolishes her car in a head-on, Janzen, 43, describes (with a touch of humor throughout) her efforts to re-establish her emotional well being by reconnecting with the comfort of her, Mennonite, childhood home.
