By dint of seeing this novel throughout gondola, I ended up buying it but soon, I was disappointed because the author speaks of her, her, her and her books. This may not bother me but in this case, I was quickly annoyed by the narrative chosen so that I only read the passages that speak of the life of her grandparents and parents and I spent those began with "I". The passages in which the author takes the stage did I think no interest or capital gains. She should retire behind his characters, accept not being in front of the center or to the novel because it's heavier and ultimately dessert irreversibly. Actually, I'm not really into history and I have not found a literary style I like. On the contrary, at times, one has the impression of reading the novel of a writer who wants to write a novel, writing sentences to writing sentences ... Rather disappointed as I was so very happy to reading, being interested in the stories of family relations.
