The Disappeared, by Kim Echlin

3.0

I would definitely recommend it to a friend. And the Echlins writing style was beautiful, like poetry, but my inner skeptic had some issues with the story itself. On the positive side, the stories of the side characters felt authentic, like they may have been based on real people. On the other, I just couldn't get past the western saviour/hubris of Anna as she thrust herself into deeply dangerous situations without any sense of the actual danger she was putting herself and those with her in.aube it shows how deep love can grind us. Maybe it shows the ignorance of western culture, believing we are immune to the atrocities of war and genocide. I see what she is doing here, it just rubbed me the wrong way.
