Negative Positive
Title: I liked it better than The Book of Ruth
Review: I found it interesting that the author started with a climax in the first chapter. There was so much emotion there, I did not know how the author could top that. At times, I was frustrated with Alice and Howard. I felt that they were not trying to be in charge of their own destiny but were shifting with the wind. I understand that they had a lot of traumatic events, and they were mired down. However, the rest of their life was at stake. I enjoyed Alice's memories of the prison the most. Those antidotes were raw, enlightening, and penetrating.
