Alison Pink (7 KP) rated The Time in Between in Books
Jan 15, 2018
The novel tells the life story of a young woman living in Madrid in the time between wars. The plot takes many twists & turns as does Sira's life. She travels the globe & suffers through many hardships. Her life is quite an amazing accomplishment when all is said and done.
The reader is left hanging a bit at the end. But it is not at all an ending that leaves you hanging; it gets wrapped up quite nicely & allows the reader to believe that in the end everything works out. Even though you don't know for sure.
Sira is a fascinating, believable character even is the circumstances she gets thrown into seem quite fantastic. This book is definitely worth a look even if you are daunted by the length of it or the fact that it is a translation.
