I think there a certain distinct kind of drama in their stories that you normally won't find in English literature. I guess I'll enjoy this.Mark Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00191881042368314958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-17624872797813562052009-06-12T11:01:58.396-05:002009-06-12T11:01:58.396-05:00I won this book for my book club and we are lookin...I won this book for my book club and we are looking forward to getting the books and discussing this at a future meeting.

I love historical fiction, so I have been wanting to read this book, but I am not sure that the time period or setting is a good one for me. That being said, your review was very thoughtful, and I really appreciated your insight into this book.Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05857638467064749190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-83856704737698703182009-06-11T08:30:16.152-05:002009-06-11T08:30:16.152-05:00INteresting review.
