Title: It was sooooooo Sad...
Review: To this day I still havn't come to learn how I aquired this book. I got it a few years ago and it looked to thick to read... :) But I started reading it a few months ago... The story is partially based on a true story and personally I rekon you should keep a box of Kleenex at hand! Parts of it is boring depending on what your into... I really loved the story and its the only Bryce Courtenay book I've read. Some of it wavered on a bit and I found the writing compelling and easy to read. The launguage used is early Australian and can be difficult to understand in some parts... The charachters were extremly well defined and you feel like you're there with them. Struggling through everything they're struggling through. Feeling everythign they feel. The story is set in World Was One and as the author says it is as close to the truth while still veiling in fiction. Its one of the lesser known books and it is very well written. I loved it!
