A review by maplessence
Perla by Caro De Robertis
5.0
Now I have a wonderful dilemma - I gave De Robertis powerful first novel 5 stars, but her second book is even better!
Powerfully written, with beautiful lyrical language, this is the tale of one young girl's life in the time of The Disappeared in Argentina. I was so drawn into Perla's story that I didn't even see the twists coming.
I can't wait for Di Robertis third novel (due next year) & she is one of my new favourite authors!
Best fiction I have read this year!
