A review by literarialuminaria
Eternal by Lisa Scottoline
4.0
!! Can be emotionally intense !!
Set in Rome, Italy, Eternal follows a dual timeline (World War II/present day) to describe the effects of the war in Rome, especially for Italian Jews in the Ghetto. While pacing was a bit slow in the beginning, the author employs vivid descriptions and it is evident she conducted meticulous research into World War II and the Holocaust. There is strong characterization throughout, and powerful themes of family and identity, war and survival, and love and loss. A remarkable, albeit sad, read.
