review 1: I gave this book two stars only because the WWII section was interesting. Even that wasn't compelling, but at least it was more believable than the story line of wealthy jet-setters, who fall in love (and into bed) at first sight and have servants to care for all their needs. The author uses several expressions (e.g. "It was a fluke", "she was a flake") and descriptions (e.g. the tulip gardens, the evil mother) over and over as if there were limited words in the English language. Finding the grandmother by accident in Istanbul was contrived, as was the Antisemitism (which was "bred in the bone") and sudden embrace of a new identity as Jewish.
