I received this book in exchange for my honest opinion.
This book is about Jules and her grandfather Szaja. Both are telling their stories: Jules in the 70's and her granfather in the 20's.
Jules is living in a very disturbed and dysfunctional environment with her parents. Between her parents there is violence, gambling, drugs and a lot of beating and to escape her imagination to bring some happy moments.
Szaja who in the 20's, witnessed unimaginable terror, violence and was too much that he develops a second personality to cope.
This book is disturbing, sad, poignant and beautiful at the same time. The author did an excellent job combining the two stories together, you could feel the pain and sorrow both were feeling.
My negative thing about this book is it was at time too slow but my overall opinion is that it's a great enjoyable book.
