Why read it?
1 author picked The Versions of Us as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Not satisfied with two possibilities, Laura Barnett wrote three! She labels them as such–Versions One (they meet and marry), Two (they don’t meet until years later), and Three (they get together but break up), of Eva the writer and Jim the painter.
The chapters are very short, almost vignette-like, but this is a case where the sum of the parts is greater than the whole. Through a collage-like accretion, I came to adore this love story that spans almost sixty years.
From Sung's list on what-if “Sliding Doors” narratives.
