kiriamarin's review against another edition

About distance between old and young generation, ways of life and at same time a tenderly fable with moral,traditions and glimpse of the life in a imaginary place of rural life Sweden , telling us about a universal and essential feeling :love
Here is a beautiful and sad story of father and daughter, Jan and Ella (made me cry a lot), united for love to each other,their roots until the death...
A bit of spoiler,this song of Piazolla, come to my mind, through the read and sum up the unforgetable character of Jan:
"Viva, viva!
Los locos que inventaron el amor"

3.5 innehållet i boken var spännande och bra men jag kunde aldrig komma förbi språket. Vet inte om det var jag läste för lite åt gången men i slutändan försämrade det min upplevelse
