Our review of book: 
A mixed response. Some readers felt this was an easy, enjoyable, thought-provoking read, which was beautifully written. Others felt it was without depth or empathy, limited vocabulary, and focused on things rather than characters who were nameless. Some felt there wasn't a satisfactory balance between the modern and historical stories.
