Quasi Book Review.


The History of Love
by Nicole Krauss

Some reasons why you might like to read this book:

--There's a novel within a novel. I'm sure there's a literary term for this technique but unfortunately I'm a music major.

--There are two storylines which get you turning pages and finally they merge at the end. The writing style is fascinating. The author uses constrasting techinques per story.

--All's fair in love and war.

--There are plenty of quotable insights on loneliness and the need for family to validate life.

--It's on Border's Original Voices selection.

--If you like reading novels that resemble art, you'd like this book.
