Why you take an obviously intelligent woman and have her do idiotic things to progress a story defies good story telling. ( ) A Hundred Years of Happiness by Nicole Seitz In South Carolina, Katherine is trying to understand her father's depression and drinking. Years earlier he had been in a war nobody talked about, Vietnam. Lisa wants to reach her Vietnamese mother who seems to have retreated since the death of a relative. And in a mountain, a fish circles in a pond with a soul clamoring to get out. These three are all waiting for the war to finally end. Maybe I was just in the right mood, but this book caught me and I sat in the shade of my patio and devoured the book. I've read others by Nicole Seitz and she hasn't failed me yet. This book had heart. Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
A beautiful young woman. An American soldier. A war-torn country. Nearly forty years of silence. Now, two daughters search for the truth they hope will set them free and the elusive peace their parents have never found. In the South Carolina Lowcountry, a young mother named Katherine Ann is struggling to help her tempestuous father by plunging into a world of secrets he never talks about. A fry cook named Lisa is trying desperately to reach her grieving Vietnamese mother who has never fully adjusted to life in the States. And somewhere far away, a lost soul named Ernest is drifting, treading water, searching for what he lost on a long-ago mountain. They're all yearning for connection. For the war that touched them to finally end. For their hundred years of happiness at long last to begin. From the beloved author of The Spirit of Sweetgrass and Trouble the Water comes this generous story of family, war, loss, and longing . . . of the ways we hide from those we love, and the ways that love finds us anyway.
