The Story of a Brief Marriage

This book was well written, and as a member of my book group pointed out, the imagery was AMAZING. It was uncomfortable to read, though. It takes place over the course of 24 hours, and gives a gritty look into what it must be like to be a refugee in the middle of a war zone. The author's skill at putting us inside the main character's head is evident. This wasn't my favorite book, but I'm glad I read it. It is literature, well written, and about a topic - refugees - that more of us in the United States need to understand better.
