samgrosser Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 I loved this book - it moved me in a way that books rarely do. It's the only book I can think of that has actually made me cry! The characters were so real, their anguish so poignant, all so subtly drawn - there were passages in the story where my heart was in my mouth, especially in the descriptions of the young son. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. I'm so sad that you thought it lacked substance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welshman Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Absolutely agree. I was more than a little worried about reading this as I have always found Bragg's TV persona a little pretentious. Not the case with the book. A wonderful read with some delicious use of metaphors in the writing. Highly artistic and compelling. But be warned - once you read this you will feel obliged to read the rest of the series!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
