When Daniel Kennicott is sent on a trip to Italy, he has no idea what he will learn about his family history and how it has woven into his life since World War 2.
The plot of this book kept me interested and pushed ahead at a good pace. I found parts of the story kind of cheesy, but other than that, the characters were enjoyable and the story taught me about wartime Italy.
I wish that the chapters weren’t quite so short. It felt like you were just falling back into the rhythm of the point of view of a character when you were ripped back to another.
