| . . . a novel about Hitler's Third Reich without equal |
|
|
|
| Disturbing, moving, eminently readable - this is a story you won't be able to put down |
|
|
|
| A novel that breaks all the rules. In spite of this, or maybe because of it, the result is a disturbing and gripping novel that has haunted me ever since I finished reading it. |
|
|
|
| Leunens has an ear for language and the ability to create a vividly sensual world for her characters that I found highly satisfying |
|
|
|
| Totally compelling |
|
|
|
| Leunens said the film showed moviegoers that "we have a choice, are we going to go back to this kind of thinking ... superior, inferior ... or are we going to move on and bring more love and compassion to our relationships?" |
|
|
|
| The best part of this interesting novel is its ability to show parts of our history which others dismiss: why suffering can make some people more sensitive but others more cruel, and how a war, such an outrage to human dignity, blurs the line between the victorious and defeated |
|
|
|
| The good-natured humour and quirkiness of the film and the drama of the novel are quite fun to contrast, and both are impactful in their own right. |
|
|
|
| A vivid and deeply compelling novel, Caging Skies is an existential battle of moral and ethical extremes. Christine Leunens is an adept and eloquent storyteller |
|
|
|
| Enthralling throughout... |
