Negative Positive
Title: Evocative, thrilling, nostalgic
Review: This book was recommended by an acquaintance who knew I came from Friesland. In fact I lived the first six years of my life, during the war, on the North Sea coast opposite the Frisian Islands (the Shallows lying between).So the story had particular resonance and I could see the actual land/seascape in my memory. Quit apart from that it was a great story with all the necessary elements of a good read: great and believable plot, well-developed characters, and lots and varied action and suspense. The descriptions of the land and sea rang very true. One of my favourite books. Hope I can get hold of the Movie.
