Incredible love story. I think this is the best modern love story I've read. The story was beautifully told and written. Without realizing it, I'd read 100 pages. I loved the main characters. Their love was never one of expectation. So many years passed and they still only felt pure love. I loved how Tin Win learned to be blind and actually saw better without eyes and how with Mi Mi they were whole- as it should be. I loved the ending and U Ba's storytelling. I was hoping for some Burma history- interesting, but was okay without. Excellent!!!!!!!
