Perhaps it is because of the very sordid conditions that these people so vividly portray love, hate, envy, courage, fe a r, cruelty, kindness, joy and sadness with such intensity. His own intensity is revealing and, at times, the book reads like a detective novel as he uncovers one clue after another, drawing close those responsible for his mother’s death. The backgrou n d of Elini’s life and the events leading up to her murder are so artfully told that you feel you are there. The book is at times, spiritually uplifting and also heartbreaking. The conclusion of this beautiful ly told story is a surprise. Don’t miss it.
