H M mahai19915610 — I read this book as part of the the Southwestern Literature class I was taking at the time. I enjoyed it a great deal though, more so than the other books of the area that we have read. As a Catholic I was able to personally relate to many of the trials that Antonio has to face as a youth questioning his fate. I think anyone though that has questioned their faith or even just elders in general can relate to the feelings the author describes. The landscape descriptions are breath taking and the characters are engaging. I would definitely recommend this to other readers especially those who aren't irked by magical realism.

Andrew Kozlov _ndrew_ozlov — What is it that makes a family? Is it the blood ties between the members--father to son, mother to daughter? Or is it something else--a shared experience, a learned appreciation, a choice? This is one of the questions explored within Gowda's Secret Daughter, but this novel is one rich in so much more as well. Secret Daughter is a beautifully written novel told from three points of view--Somer, the American mother's; Asha, the adopted daughter's; and Kavita, the biological mother's. But what's more, this novel explores the culture of India--the fact that so many female children are killed due to the practice of either gender-specific abortion or gender-specific infanticide. Kavita and her husband are a poor couple trying to eke out a living in their small village town. They realize they will only ever be able to support one child. Unfortunately, Kavita produces a daughter--whom they will never be able to appropriately dowry in accordance with Indian custom. So, Kavita's husband makes a horrible choice--infanticide. When Kavita's second child is likewise a daughter, Kavita cannot bear the thought of her being subjected to the same fate, so she and her cousin smuggle the baby away to an orphanage in Mumbai. Somer is married to Krishnan, a man who immigrated from India for medical school in the States; however, after several miscarriages, the couple has just learned that Somer is unable to have children. What to do? Adopt from an orphanage in Krishnan's homeland. So begins a saga that spans twenty years, two continents, and many misunderstandings. I loved this novel because the story that it wove seemed quite plausible--the questions Asha seeks to answer about her biological parents are common ones for adoptees, and the cultural tensions between Somer and both Krishnan and Asha seem to me to be legitimate ones. After all, how does one smother one's native culture as thoroughly as Krishnan seems to do? But what I loved was Asha's quest to find answers and a cultural heritage, to understand who she was as an individual. Her quest takes her into the slums of India, a very separate India from the one in which her father was raised and in which her grandmother still lives. In it, the reader is shown just how difficult it is to survive, yet there is a grace demonstrated by the women within this society that astounds me. Beautiful novel--a definite recommend.

Guilherme Oliveira guilhermeo487b — كتاب قارع باب الجنة هو عبارة عن نشر لجميع التدوينات التي كتبتها المدونة هديل الحضيف رحمها الله وكما هي طبيعة الكتابة في المدونات الشخصية فهي قصيرة في غالبها تتناول شأناً اجتماعياً أوشخصياً وتبدي رأيها حياله ، هديل رحمها الله أسلوبها مميز ، قراءة الكتاب مفيدة للمدونين الجدد ستحفزهم للكتابة في مدوناتهم وتلهمهم لأفكار تدوينية جديدة ، في نهاية الكتاب عرض لمقابلات أجريت مع هديل في عدد من المنتديات لكن طريقة عرض المقابلات سيئة جداً لأنها عبارة عن نسخ ولطق دون ترتيب أو تنسيق ، رحم الله هديل وأسكنها فسيح جناته

Maria Sierra _ — "Forty-one years after I died, my friend Dale returned to the farm where I was murdered. It was a very bad winter." A very good opening line of a well written tale, Simmons uses a technique that is developed in full in Drood--keep on your alert while reading. While not really a sequel, it would help to have read A Summer of Night before reading A Winter Haunting. If you haven't, some of the references and the setting may not make sense.
