Title: One of the best books written -- almost
Review: Man, this was one great book. I can't remember the last time a novel invoked such passion. But that ending -- humph, it's like de Berniers just got tired of writing. Don't get me wrong, I love a tragedy as much as the next, but the author's reasons for Antonio's actions in the book's final 80ish pages are wholly unbelievable and bordering on insulting.AND to expect us to believe he had trouble excepting Carlo's secret -- give me a break!This truly is one GREAT book, but I'd like to think the last 80 pages were written by someone else.
