I didn't like Joyce very much. I actually cringed when she went to Patrick's apartment. I thought, "Good God, Woman, what are you doing?" That whole affair bothered me, especially every time Patrick called her Joycey. I know her marriage was on shaky ground, that her relationship with her daughter was rocky as well, and that she was unhappy and lonely, but really! And honestly, I didn't get the point of the "limitations" of her physical relationship with Patrick. What did that have to do with anything? Kathleen, on the other hand, seemed more relatable to me, more grounded, and in general, nicer. I didn't like this book nearly as much as I did "The Red Tent".
