A review by mcgovnhm
Red Clocks by Leni Zumas

5.0

Zumas created within this novel an important, stimulating, emotional and- above all- heartfelt story. Her writing is at times prose and at others pure poetry. I loved every minute of reading this book and felt a deep connection to the narrators, each for a unique reason.
In the time I was reading it I caught myself stopping, re-reading and even reading aloud to myself the wonderful bits of words Zumas had strung together. This book was a reminder to me of the power that language can have. During the last few pages I started to cry, not because it was sad- although there was a great deal of sadness in the book- but because it was so beautiful.
