What to read in the summer? I definitely recommend Siri Hustvedt's The Summer without Men. This novel shows you a beautiful, witty and realistic woman who explores herself and womanhood after her marriage breaks apart. This is a novel about relationship. long marriage, teenage girls, old people's home and one hot summer in Minessota.
