Al R. (Iskandor) reviewed on 2/28/2017 + 22 more book reviews

Good writer and story. However, unnecessary gruesome detail, e. g., "Your baby has jaundice and must see a doctor." "Just be one less mouth ter feed (from mother). Another young mother is carrying a dead baby in her arms. And (spoiler alert!) of course the little match girl dies because "she was too stupid to get a warm blanket to cover 'er".
Would have been a 4 or 5, if not for the indirect social commentary
