Title: The Bird Lady
Product review: Time of the Doves tells the story of a young woman who marries the wrong man and ends up dealing with a life of poverty, naughty children... and birds. Eventually things change, but her life is definitely not one to envy.Good Stuff- It is at times humorous and a bit random, but in a charming (not annoying) way. Like when the toddler throws the intestinal word the family was storing in a jar on the baby.- The story flows well, weaving through the pivotal moments of the narrator's life.- It was different as far as setting and time period for me, which I appreciated.But- It really felt that at times the translation was off; this really bothered me the most. Some of the words just felt... wrong. And, hence, the flow of the syntax seemed off at times.- For me the end was a bit contrived and a little too happy for my liking.All in all an interesting, enjoyable quick read.
