Customer Reviews
Good story and history
I enjoyed this book. It makes clear how vulnerable many people were, especially women.
Trigger warning
The main male character rapes the main female character on multiple occasions. He uses her desperation to force her to have sex with him at the threat of losing her home and job and making her family homeless. Then we’re just supposed to forget about that and believe he’s secretly noble and kindhearted. This book is not a love story.
Great read
This book was great to read. Lots of good story lines with multiple characters. I enjoyed reading it.
