Jerome Healy jeromehealy0672 — The setting for this story is during World War I in London, England. The heroine is Bess Crawford, a battlefield nurse. During one of the coldest winters London has seen in a very long time, Bess encounters an emotional lady with a black eye on her doorstep. By nature, Bess cannot turn her away. But , litttle does Bess know about the trouble she was inviting into her life. By befriending this lady, Bess' life became very complicated. This one good deed takes Bess to a remote, spooky town where she gets tangled up in several murders. Lydia, the lady that Bess had helped has a wealthy husband named Roger. Lydia and Roger live in a huge house with his family. It turns out that the black eye Lydia has, came from her wealthy husband and the reason she was on Bess' door step is because she was running from him. Lydia convinces Bess to go back home with her because she thinks if she tells Roger that she was with a friend, that maybe Roger will not be as angry as if she had just ran away from him. So, Bess ends up with this complicated family in a spooky town, in a scary house. It becomes even more scary when a family friend is murdered near the house and Bess and Roger's Mother finds the dead man. The family is already trying to get over the loss of two family members, so this death adds to their grief. When it seems they are beginning to accept the death of the family friend, there is another death. This time it is the family Doctor and he is found on their property. Bess is caught up in this families problems and even becomes a suspect in the murders. To clear herself and find the murderer, Bess has to go to France. All of this is happening at the same time that the War is raging. In France, a beautiful orphan child is rescued from a fire by one of Bess' patients. This child becomes a very important part of the murder mystery. This is a wonerful mystery that will keep you guessing until the very end. I had no idea who the bad guy was until the end, which is the way a good mystery shoud be. visit my review at http://booktalkswithcharla.blogspot.com

Yuber Sutachan sutachang — ummm, seems a bit far fetched that Bella would be soooo in loooovee with Edward and then kiss Jacob and be torn. I hope Breaking Dawn is better...

Angela Black tazzy43 — This was my first Bellow novel, and I recommend it, though with some hesitation. I found it difficult to read because Bellow takes so many liberties in writing this book. It does not have a consistent narrative perspective, nor a coherent plot that keeps the book moving forward. It is a 350-page character study, more than it is a novel. What there is of plot follows a middle-aged man, Moses Herzog, coping with the end of his second marriage. His wife has run off with his best friend, he is a stranger to both of his children (from 2 different marriages), and he has recently given up on his work - a years-long philosophical study that has been made obsolete by a recently published volume on the same subject. So, Herzog is in full crisis mode. He is not comfortable in his own skin, his own apartment; everywhere feels tainted by association - New York, his house in the Berkshires, his old city of Chicago - and the way that he seeks to escape all this is to write crazed letters to friends, acquaintances, philosophers, anyone who suits him at that point in time (even God). Through these letters, which are often bitterly funny or downright tragic, the life of Herzog comes into focus. We cover his whole history. What makes the book so difficult to read is that there is little narrative connection from one moment to the next. Sometimes there's a 3rd-person narrator, or sometimes Herzog is talking in the first-person. Bellow jumps indiscriminantly back-and-forth, even from one sentence to the next. It is a dizzying effect and it kept me at a distance from the character for quite some time. Also, Herzog is an intellectual and he makes intellectual references & allusions which, if you get bogged down in them, could take you down all sorts of roads away from "the story." Much of the details are autobiographical from Bellow's own life, and I believe much of the discussion surrounding this book over the years lies in these tangents, and the philosophical expressions that Bellow reveals through his character. But what redeems the book, and actually makes it quite remarkable, is the last 100 pages. If I didn't have to read it for a class, I may never have gotten there, but I'm glad I did. Once a frenzied Herzog arrives in Chicago, intent on doing harm to his ex-wife & his former best friend, the novel abandons many of its distancing elements (the letters disappear, the narrative is more action-oriented), and we just focus on this man and his human relationships. The conclusions that Herzog reaches about himself and those around him are deeply moving, even to this often unfeeling reader. As a result, there will be more Bellow in my future. Augie March or Henderson the Rain King probably, which I hear are more accessible books.

Luzeth Cordova luzethco — I enjoyed this book as much as all of his other books. I especially liked this one because it dealt with interesting historical mysteries.
