MY OPINIONS AND THE OPPOSITE OF RELATIONSHIPS.

A VERY ENTERTAINING AND BREATH TAKING STORY BY MARGE PIERCY " GOING DOWN FAST" DESCRIBES ABOUT A WOMAN NAMED ANNA.A PERSON WHO IS VERY SUCCESSFUL IN LIVING THE ROUGHNESS IN LIFE OF HOW TWO PEOPLE HANDLE MARRIAGES AND LOOSING THEIR JOBS.IT SHOWS HOW MANY DIRECTIONS IN LIFE PEOPLE FACED THROUGH.I THINK THAT THIS STORY INSPIRED ME,IT SHOWED ME THAT LIFE AND COMMITMENT OUT THERE ISN'T EASY. I REALLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO THE ROMANTIC TYPE OF LOVERS OUT THERE.
