The
Secrets We Kept was a gift from my younger sister – a great
pick, thanks A! This tells the story of
how Doctor Zhivago (the book) came to be published. A story I was completely unaware of before
reading this book.
The writing is spare and elegant – very easy to
read. The font was also very readable
(Bulmer). The story is told through the
eyes of two women who work for the CIA and the mistress of the author. I sometimes find this approach a bit off
putting but it really worked here.
Trust me, you'll want to read this one soon.
Oooo intriguing find!
ReplyDeleteOoooh, interesting. I never knew about this one, either. And Doctor Zhivago is one of my favourite stories ever.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the review.
