  1. Historiskt korrekt och känslomässigt gripande.
    Katarina, 25 augusti 2015

    Historiskt korrekt och känslomässigt gripande roman. En resa från före revolutionen till efter kommunismens sönderfall. Det är omöjligt att inte gripas av maktens påverkan på människor. Samtidigt påminner boken om det okuvliga i kärlek, sanning och vänskap.
