A wonderfull book

I read it again, and again and again. Two people who seem so far and yet slowly grow so near.It is not only of two but a whole modern life around them, and past and different backgrounds.A very rich book.

A Book of Ruth

The focus of this book is the perspective of a Jewish woman named Ruth, reluctantly involved an unplanned romantic relationship with a Catholic priest.The feelings of her Jewish relatives and friends and their opposition to any relationship with a non Jew are also explored as well as the struggles the priest is going through as he is trying to decide whether to leave the church to continue the relationship.I found the book enjoyable, very readable and the characters very well drawn and human.
