The Story of Arthur Truluv

By Elizabeth Berg

240 pages

This was a lovely story of a lonely man finding hope and purpose through a

young girl who was also feeling lonely and lost.  The two of them find friendship

and connection with a neighboring widow who is also looking for purpose.

The story is good, but I found myself wishing things were more dialogue out

between the characters.  There was definite character development, but you

didn’t get to actually experience the defining moments with the characters.

Because of this, it felt a little choppy. It felt like it was an abridged version of

the book, but it was just the book the author presented.
