Title: Not Just a Story
Review: To put it simply, Connie Willis's 'Doomsday Book' is one of the best book I've ever read.When twentysomething Kivrin bravely journey's to the 1300's, she had no idea what terrors lie waiting for her. While she is trying to stay alive and sane in the brutal 14th century, her counterparts back home in 2058 are dealing with their own brutality, trying all the time to save the young, lost historian. Amazingly, like the angel she is thought to be, Kivrin takes the entire town under her care, nursing them as each one becomes increasingly sick. On the edge of death herself, Kivrin stays strong for her make-shift family, until she left completely alone.Desperately funny, painfully sad, unbelievably terrifying and astoundingly visual, 'Doomsday Book' is more than simply read - it is felt.
