to: The Return (Hardcover)byVictoria Hislop bookshelves: advance-copies
Knowing very little about the Spanish Civil War, I had a lot of interest in reading this book. I was a little disappointed in the presentation of the historical aspect of the story, as I felt it went into too much detail about each battle. I actually skimmed over some of the descriptions. I like being educated while reading a book, but became a bit bored at some points.
I loved the descriptions of flamenco and the guitar performances - entrancing! I now want to go to Spain to see the flamenco in person. The author did a wonderful job describing the passions and emotions involved in the dance.
I did enjoy this book very much, though I wish the entire story had been set in Spain during the period of the Civil War. I didn't feel as if the present day characters added anything, and in my opinion, were a distraction.
I'd recommend this book to friends and family.
