No, it's a flop!

It was the second attempt of reading this. I thought the beginning section was such hard work but didn't feel the rest of the book made up for it.

  well written and exciting book. Although it took me a while to get used to the style with lots of adjectives and to get 'in' the story.

  I love Allende, She writes so "sugary" (her wordy descriptions) about tragic things. This is a great book for an North American to read as we are so spoiled with our freedoms. We have no idea what it is to fear our government, something a majority if humans experience.
