The poetic simplicity of the writing is ingenious. One critic found the voices somewhat stilted because lacking dialect - but they felt very true to me and the characters were very much alive. It is difficult to ponder this existence. But, it is an inspirational story of one family's determination, kindness, generosity, and persistent optimism that you come to hope may be the core of human nature - when all else is taken away. I found the story compelling and very sad but the ending felt like it just dropped me. I actually went back and made sure some pages hadn't stuck together or something, but there was nothing else except for an ad for more books I might like. If the ending had just been better and more finished I would've given this 4 stars. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

It is amazing how they did not give up even though the circumstances became devasting. People became homeless as a result of the weather and companies took the land from which they made a meager living. Even though it was a traditional marriage, arranged, between an older man and very young woman and their marriage had threats, their love for each other endured.
I hope that you read it. ( )
