I really enjoyed this book. It is a touching story of a frightened young girl, the solace she finds for a brief while, and the boy she comes to love. All too soon, they are parted, he to enter WWI fighting for France, his homeland, and she to accompany her grandfather through many countries where he travels for a linguistic quest. The personalities of Clare and Luc are wonderful, and their story is beautiful, if heart-wrenching in parts.
