'Using Spain of the booming 1980s ashis example, Lederer describes a world,and a pace of life, fast disappearing.Globalization, interconnectivity,modernization and financial pressures arebringing to an end that slower rhythm towhich men and women have moved...forever. In 'Nothing Lasts ForeverAnymore', a small family is faced withnew choices as expanding communitiesencircle the little seaside farm on whichthey have lived for generations. Whateverthey decide to do, even having thosechoices means that things will never be thesame.'
