It would be a stretch to use the word"enjoy" with regards to my feelings for this book. With that said, I was completely absorbed by Mr. McCann's way with words! His writing is thoroughly engrossing and his story line was deep and dark. I just could not put this book down. I cannot exactly explain it but was absolutlely involved with the characters. Just ordered his "Let the Great World Spin". Can't wait!
This book was so well written that I immediately fell into the lives of the characters. Such beauty, happiness and sadness in one place. The story is two stories that take place ninety years apart and are intertwined in away the reader doesn't recognize until near the end. But throughout it is clear that what we see on the surface of people or relationships is not always what we think.
