Think of Me by Frances Liardet
5.0
Oh this is such a lovely book it is a joyous tender story of a lasting love which will stay forever with me
I loved the way the story is told from the point of view iv both the main characters the man tells his story with the time varying and the past told in flashbacks ,the woman who has died tragically tells her own story in the form of diary entries
The book starts in war time in Egypt and continues to 1979s Britain .The initial setting giving a unique character of French colonialism to the story
The author deal with the story of a baby lost to still birth in such a sensitive fashion that I felt sure there must be some lived experience here .The description of the baby who has died some time before delivery was so shockingly brutal that only medical staff or someone who has gone through this personally would be able to write so well .This must hand been such a difficult thing to do
I loved lots of other little pieces o Fb this book like elderly lady only able to say Yes and the way the author deals with different characters religious beliefs
I will be strongly recommending this book if you liked The English patient or Still Life you will love this book
