Title: Interesting first half, trash the second
Review: The beginning of this book, where the main character discribes her childhood in turn-of-the-century Jaffa, is very engaging. She slowly learns and spells out the family secrets that help her understand who her mother and grandmother, and of course who she herself is. The relationships and discriptions as related to the plague and riots were very well done.However, the book goes off on a sexual tangent after the girl leaves home. The sex obsesed, religion hating character that fills the second part of the book has little relationship to the first half. The only reason you will plow through this part is to learn the final secret of the grandmother.The religious dessecration is wholy unnecessary and very disturbing. There are parts of this book that left a very bad taste in my mouth, thus prompting me to write this review. I will never pick up another on of her books.
