What a beautifully written book! I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. 

It is full of complex characters and nuance, even the minor characters have depth to them. 

I found it mostly to be a book about WWII. It felt like Marian's life was one defined by tragedy, love and curiosity, and later by war.
