This story was inspired by a true series of events, and Sophie does a magical job of making you feel like you're reading personal accounts from those days. Writing in first person usually reads as lazy and sloppy to me. It's very rare that first person narrative is done truly well, and Cursed Bread is that exception. You feel like you are reading the personal journal of a woman going slowly mad with boredom, lust, jealousy, and disgust. I highly, highly recommend. I will be thinking about this book for years.
