I’m having a really hard time trying to find the words to express my love for this book.
It’s written beautifully. The writing captivated me right away, it flowed really well, it was well paced and lyrical.
The story extends over several generations, and despite that, it kept my interest throughout. I wish I could say that I couldn’t put it down, but at times I had to as I was getting overwhelmed with emotion. The book offered a lot of insight into historical events that I was unfamiliar with before it. It did spark my interest for more information with how well the circumstances were described though. I think that, because of these descriptions, as well as the characters that were well-developed and vivid, the book offers a one of a kind glimpse into the culture and mentality of Việt Nam.
The Mountains Sing is an important read that you shouldn’t miss out on.
I absolutely recommend it.
