- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I couldn't get in in to this book, the first pages were very interesting but I cant say the same for the rest and the final.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I read this book years ago but I couldn't remember the name of it. I discovered that here. The book was enjoyable, a love story taking place just before war breaks out in Europe.. The couple travels back to the husband's country, Italy, and there was memorable descriptions of the mountains. What i didn't understand was the sudden ending. The husband goes off to war, promising to return, and that's it, the end. I thought it was as if the author got tired of it so he just ended it. I didn't know what the wife was going to do or if the man actually ever came back or what. I'll have to find it in my collections and re-read it. I don't doubt a re-read will be worth it.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I really loved reading this book (on my Nook) with Norah Jones playing in the background. It's a really tragic and romantic love story without being too...gushy. I admit that the ending was abrupt, a bit jarring. But, by the end of the story you will (probably) be happy anyway. My only complaint was that Alvina sometimes behaves sporadically, and Cicchio is unpredictable. I found that Simone de Beauvoir explained D.H. Lawrence's style well in "The Second Sex." It would be helpful to read that first to understand Lawrence and why his characters (particularly Alvina) behaves the way she does. Anyway, I still give this book five stars.
