The End Of The Day

 In The End Of The Day by Bill Clegg, six people are described. Jackie, Dana, Alice, Lupita, Floyd and Hap tell their story. At the beginning of the book I had no idea that their lives intersected. By the end I learn that all of their stories were tied to each other. The end of the story takes place on one day when a few of the characters meet for the first time in over fifty years. I was very interested in the story of a taxi driver in Hawaii, a widow in Connecticut, a new father in Pennsylvania and a wealthy recluse in New York City had to do with each other. Sometimes we make choices in life that have long term consequences. Assumptions, misunderstandings, and hurt feelings can fester when people don't talk things out or when they hide the truth. This author is a masterful storyteller.
