Purchased from Amazon this book, as usual with Erica James is a brillantly woven mixture of love and heartbreak, riveting to the end.

I loved Diamant's first novel, THE RED TENT, more than any book I've read in the last ten years. So I it was with great anticipation that I bought GOOD HARBOR. Diamant wisely chooses a topic as far from Biblical times as possible, and the two novels couldn't be more different. Two women at a crossroads in their lives and marriages meet in the small town of Gloucester, Massachusetts, and become fast friends. The setting is rich with possibilities, but Diamant's intentions are more successful than her execution. The simplicity of style which worked so well and powerfully in RED TENT here seems to undermine the emotional arc of the two women, Joyce and Kathleen, and we never care for them as deeply as we could. Kathleen's battle with breast cancer, and her attempt to make peace with her son's death 25 years earlier just doesn't move us as it should. And when a lonely Joyce drifts farther and farther from her husband and teenaged daughter into an affair with a handsome Irish fisherman, who will never fully consummate their physical relationship, we, too, feel unfulfilled. Diamant is a hugely talented author, but GOOD HARBOR just isn't in the same class as THE RED TENT. Let's hope her next effort proves more worthy, since she obviously has the talent and the vision to write brilliantly when the topic moves her.

I eagerly awaited Diamant's new novel after embracing her masterpiece, The Red Tent. And I'm so disappointed.... I kept waiting to like these two women and empathsize with their struggles, but I just couldn't! Good Harbor portrays two lives, intertwined yet very different in scope and purpose. Kathleen, breast cancer survivor, comes across as whiney and panic stricken, and harbors a secret that she can't let go. Joyce, romance author, is superficial and unfocused. Diamant's background as a Hebrew scholar and writer does not shine here as it in did in The Red Tent.... it's almost an afterthought that adds little to the story.Too many unfinished story lines (the rabbi and Kathleen's son, for example), and manufactured twists (saving Joyce from a drug bust) just don't do it for me. It seems Diamant really struggled to write this one and I struggled to read it.I felt the hot sands and desert breezes of The Red Tent, which was so rich in lyrical prose. But Good Harbor is all fogged in.

I just had surgery for the same cancer as Kathleen. A second time around for me the first was an invasive cancer. She was, understandably, dealing unresolved issues, but nowadays patients are better informed about their cancers. It is scary but I don't think she was realistic in her approach especially about the radiation. It is threatening but the author overdramatized the character's reactions.I enjoyed the friendship between Kathleen and Joyce. Friendships make all life's trials easier.

After worrying that Anita Diamant's latest book would only be for women, I was pleasantly surprised to find myself (a male) being drawn in right off the bat. Good Harbor offers a peek into the lives of two modern women who meet by chance in a small town in Massachusetts.We are privlidged to watch their friendship grow as they reveal to us and each other, the joys and pains of life in modern America The minor characters are also interesting and I am hoping that a followup novel will continue the women's story as they deal with life in modern USA.I heard the book on tape and recommend it hightly to those, like me, spend too much time in a car. It got to where I looked forward to going for a drive, so I could hear more of Good Harbor.
