A book club selected book, so one that I probably wouldn’t have chosen for myself. I do read historical fiction books occasionally so the genre is not completely foreign to me. I guess what is foreign to me is the particulars of this book. I did have some appreciation for the experiences of a culture different from mine but did have a slightly difficult time getting deeply into the book.
