That's very kind of you, Bookpossum! I am sure there are families out there that would appreciate it. It represents the true spirit of the season.
Yes, I keep thinking about this book which is why it is so hard to post about it. Hungary was a very different world. The book is not just about individuals, but I think making a statement about the country too. Another thing that I keep pondering on is the way it was written from one point of view such that you never see exactly from Emerence's perspective. At times the narrator seemed very self-absorbed and immature, but then I think my own thoughts would be rather embarrassing too if everything I thought about were recorded unfiltered.
