O carte buna, cu subiect interesant, dar cu un final puțin grăbit. O cunoaștem pe Catrijn, o tânără văduva care pleacă în căutarea unui trai mai bun. Cunoaște oameni, o ia de la capăt, trece printr-o serie de tragedii. Și cunoaște iubirea. Dar a fost o fază ciudata cu povestea asta de iubirea, deoarece nu mă așteptam la destinul rezervat de scriitoare. Iar Catrijn mi s-a părut foarte naivă. Și avem și ciuma, care a bântuit puternic în secolul 17.

Very interesting topic and period of the European history. With the main characters which are well created, a nice personal drama to heighten the suspense, and overall good writing technique, it is a novel to be enjoyed.
