A fantastic story of one woman's strength and determination. I've always enjoyed books set against the backdrop of the two World Wars and when combined with a protagonist who must overcome odds that are stacked against her—on top of dealing with the crippling side effects of polio—this made one hell...

Beautiful love story about a tenacious Frenchwoman searching for her missing fiance after World War I. Suspenseful, wonderful story with a great ending. Loved it!

Very obviously translated from the French. Not that it's a poor translation - the way words and thoughts are put together just seem very French.I enjoyed the mystery of whether or not Manech was dead. Mathilde is a very intriguing (though somewhat prickly) character.Quite enjoyable.
