One of my favorite books in a lifetime of reading!
This is one of my all time favorite books. Told from the points of view of main characters, the personalities are real, most of them complex, & compelling. The history based story (not a real family, but I’ve known similar individuals…) tells a part of our nation’s & World’s tragic but little known story. I grew up in this period of time, & remember reading about the events—with a very different viewpoint from the American media of the time. The author has a clear bias (with which I strongly agree) but she gives facts & opinions from both sides—at the time & in retrospect—all a part of the intricately woven story. Her language weaves a web of beauty & sorrow & inspiration. The details have such amazing circular connections that it is a wonderful book to teach & discuss. I’ve read it 3 times now, & each time—& with each discussion with new readers—I gain more insight. I highly recommend this book for story, characters, style & beauty of the writing.
