Customer Reviews

I couldn't put it down!

This book was recommended to me and I, in turn, recommend it to others. It is multi-faceted and delves into a time period and a culture I didn't know so much about as an American millennial. Well written, great flow.

Great Story

This was such a great read and gave an insight to a culture very different from my own. Recommended for anyone who is looking to explore a life that has been very different from their own upbringing.
