[Gifted Paperback]

This is a fantastic beautifully written book that follows life in a small village as the Ottoman Empire fell. Even though it has been a few years since I read this book, I can still see in my minds eye the faces of its people and the contours of its landscapes.

This is simply a stunningly beautiful and well woven story of life and war.

10/5
