Beyond beautiful
A very engaging narrative, wonderfully constructed, and elegantly accomplished

I did not enjoy this book. Very simplistic writing. Run-on sentences. Poor punctuation. Only moderately interesting plot.
This book was rated well which is why I chose it. I was very disappointed. Even the ending was a complete let-down.

It grew on me.
Initially, this book seemed too simply written and scattered in its focus to hold my attention. However, the more I read, the more I was drawn into the lives and activities of the citizens in two small Italian villages during WWII. The visual images became more and more vivid to me as I watched the lives of members of two neighboring families struggle with their options and actions during the war.

Very Good
M**T
Very unusual stream of consciousness book.
A bit tedious to read, the author really requires the reader to follow along and work hard to keep up with an unending sequence of life unfolding and jumping from character to character. There seems to be an unseen narrator reading minds.Would not have labored so hard to get to the end, had I realized it was more of the same until it ended. There is compassion and. Judgement for the characters, but oddly confused.
