Description
“Three stories are told: a young Southerner wants to become a writer; a turbulent love-hate affair between a brilliant Jew and a beautiful Polish woman; and of an awful wound in that woman’s past—one that impels both Sophie and Nathan toward destruction.”
Janet Dore –
During my trip to Poland, I wanted to read as much as I could on anything Polish. This book was good, but quite tedious and long. It was slow going, but I’m glad I plodded through it…the same way I feel when I read certain ‘intellectual’ classics.
