Many Caloried In Chinese Curry
was my mother who satisfy my curiosity. I was fascinated by story revealed to me, I wanted to know more and that is that from the beginning I caught the legend of Anastasia's there, he wanted to read the novel by John Boyne , a book by the way, with a nice title: The house special purpose .
have passed sixty-five years together and now that Zoya, wife of the protagonist, going to leave this world, Georgi , he takes stock of his life and tells the reader how he met his wife and all that have passed both of which is, believe me @ eater, a lot.
And, the work of the Boyne is a tragedy yes, but mostly it's fear and tears. Georgi lives in a village in Russia. Let's say your family environment is not the best but her sisters are everything for him, especially one of them, Asya. One day, almost inadvertently saves the life of a cousin of Tsar Nicholas II and the fate wants him to be chosen to protect his son, Alexis Romanov. Leaving behind their loved ones and a world of misery.
This is how the young will be part of the large royal family witnessing its highs and lows. All in a dream scenario: the P straightening Winter in St. Petersburg. It will be like a brother to Alexis and more than that for Anastasia. Does the background? The years of revolution and fall of the Romanov dynasty . Assist the reader because, as imagine, the tragic end of the imperial family. It took several weeks to finish the novel but not because I liked it, quite the contrary, has entertained me, what happened is that when I had time to read I did not want and when I felt like I had no time . Days "rare", as you see.
Boyne's style has caught me and although there are multiple time jumps, as we build the lives of the two main characters little by little, piece by piece, I found it difficult not to follow the story, a story whose main characters bear a very big secret that the reader intuits but can not be confirmed until the end.
If I tell the truth, I think, as the writer, who Anastasia could not be murdered by the Bolsheviks as happened to his brothers and his parents even though it seems that testing proved DNA that Anna Anderson, the woman claiming to be her, it was not but wonder if it was not the Grand Duchess, how the family knew so much about things that nobody else could know unless they had lived with them?
