Book Favorite

"Baldwin’s grand novel, Another Country, delivers beatnik-era 1950s, with characters who are on all sides of black, white, gay and straight, twisting complex lives into a magical taffy of perfection. By humanizing the bourgeoning civil rights movement and changing attitudes towards women, Baldwin creates a historical portrait of America that is a great key to understanding where we come from."

Wow…
 Where do I even start with this book? Jennifer Uhlarik did an amazing job with the historical aspects of this book. I loved a glimpse into rural fort life and that of a female doctor during the turn of the last century. The emotions and actions of the characters were very engaging and believable. I so enjoyed the love story

There were parts of this book that I liked - the characters were quirky, interesting and vivid. The backdrop of the historical context of the IRA and the hunger strikes were written about poignantly without a soap box or sentimentality. But the story was not compelling and I did not warm to the protagonists. This book did not grab my heart.
