This was the very first epistolary novel that I have thoroughly enjoyed!!! (I tried The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, and I'm sure I'm one of the few who didn't enjoy that book.). This book is told through letters written back and forth between two characters, but through these letters we get to know the people, their families, and their circumstances. I increasingly found myself intrigued by their two separate lives, and how well that was conveyed to each other through letter-writing! It also made me want to keep reading to see the responses of each person to the letters. (No spoiler, but I loved how she ended it, too!)

My biggest pet peeve was that for all his repetitive claims to have poor English, Anders’ sentences were surprisingly complex and full of clauses; his lingual limitations were only “evident” in his vocabulary, not in word usage.

It was a fine read, but slow moving and unremarkable. This is a trend for me among books set even partially in a Scandinavian culture.
