() Roger Rosenblatt's reputation is well-established. He is one of The finest one writers living in the United States today. So I expected his than last book, MAKING TOAST to be interesting and touching, and touching and interesting it is.Rosenblatt gives the history of Amy, its young, brilliant, beautiful daughter, and of her sudden death. He and his wife immediately, instantly, abandoned their own rich existences to move into its children daughter's home. They wanted to assist their son-in-law with the three very young, one barely a year old.Rosenblatt and his wife Ginny, through their actions, show themselves to the equilibrium be people of the greatest empathy, self-sacrifice, generosity and sensitivity, trying to find the of their places in their new home.I have attended sermonizes that Rosenblatt had given at the State University at Stony Brook, where he is a Distinguished Professor. From this report, it is that amazes to see this brilliant man evolve into "Boppo," which is what his grandchildren call him, a nickname quickly adopted by their friends. The piece is the creator of silly songs, the chef of the perfect of toast. (Hence the book's title.)This is a lovely book, a touching and lyrical book. MAKING TOAST is about the power oflove.
