Product Information

The true story of thirteen women who took a risk on an expensive diamond necklace and, in the process, changed not only themselves but a community. Four years ago, in Ventura, California, Jonell McLain saw a diamond necklace in a local jewelry store display window. The necklace aroused desire first, then a provocative question: Why are personal luxuries so plentiful yet accessible to so few? What if we shared what we desired? Several weeks, dozens of phone calls, and a leap of faith later, Jonell bought the necklace with twelve other women, with the goal of sharing it. Part charm, part metaphor, part mirror, the necklace weaves in and out of each woman's life, reflecting her past, defining her present, making promises for her future. Lending sparkle in surprising and unexpected ways, the necklace comes to mean something dramatically different to each of the thirteen women. With vastly dissimilar histories and lives, the women show us how they transcended their individual personalities and politics to join together in an uncommon journey. What started as a quirky social experiment became something far richer and deeper, as the women transformed a symbol of exclusivity into a symbol of inclusiveness. They discovered that sharing the necklace among themselves was only the beginning; The more they shared with others, the more profound this experience-and experiment-became. Original, resonant, and beautifully told, this book is an inspiring story about a necklace that became greater than the sum of its links, and about thirteen ordinary women who understood the power of possibility, who touched the lives of a community, and who together created one extraordinary experience.

Reviews
"Inspirational . . . The best way to honor the book's principles is to share your copy with a friend."-New York Times "The Necklaceis a fascinating journey into thirteen women's lives. Sweet and touching, it also manages to make you think about what really matters in life."-Kathie Lee Gifford "Original and beautifully crafted . . . How this piece of jewelry transformed the lives of the participants is the subject of a highly readable book that is part memoir, part metaphor and all charm."-Tucson Citizen "This moving book profiles a remarkable social experiment, where friendships and beliefs are uncovered and found to be just as strong as the stones being passed from neck to neck."-Redbook "[A] must-have book . . .The Necklacecould as easily have been titled The Sisterhood of the Traveling Diamonds."-New York Daily News "A feel-good and thought-provoking book."-BookPage "A gem of a story sparkles underThe Necklace."-St. Louis Post-Dispatch

    Light Beach Read

    More of a “Beach Read”. Not a book I was anxious to pickup and continue reading. Last two chapters were better than the entire book.

    The necklace by cheryl jarvis 2008 hardback

    My mother passed away and she always wore necklaces. A friend recommended the book, I bought it, read it, and purchased a necklace of great value and beauty for all my daughters, daughter-in-laws and friends to wear. The book is inspirational. The effect the necklace has had on all of us is amazing, we get to be reminded of my mothers love and her constant eye for beauty.

    the necklace

    I like it so far. I am just 64 pages in and think it is very interesting about the ladies who bought the necklace and what they are getting besides wearing it to special events. I feel like I need to know more about these ladies and what they are thinking about an expensive item, how they feel when they wear it, how they wear it and if they think it was worth the price they paid. I like real stories which some of us would never know about if it wasn't it print.
