review 1: Me surpreendi com o livro, o autor conseguiu me deixar envolvida do começo ao fim,a narrativa é muito bem construída, eu me senti junto com Geórgui Jachmenev vivenciando sua entrada no palácio de inverno até a sua vida como aposentado em Londres vivendo com sua esposa Zoia um estagio de câncer avançado. Com apaixonada por livros com fatos históricos, pela Rússia e por um amor que supera tudo.
review 2: This book exceeded my expectations. Having read 'The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas', I wasn't sure whether I really wanted to read another John Boyne book, but this one was excellent. Beginning in 1981 London, this book tells the story of a married Russian couple. One story tells of their marriage, beginning with old age and gradually moving back in ... moretime. In alternate chapters, we learn the story of the husband as a child, growing up in Russia. Gradually each story moves towards each other until the conclusion. For those who know a bit about Russian history, there won't be any surprises in this book. However, the whole is told in the style of a memoir and the voice of Georgy, the Russian husband, is a wonderful one as we hear of both his childhood and his marriage. As such, the book presents as a cohesive whole and the structure works beautifully. This book moved well and kept my interest throughout. There were some lovely phrases and it was a pleasure to read. less
