Unfortunately I couldn't get all the way through this book. I tried so hard, but it was very obvious that this book was translated from another language. The story was old fashioned and lifeless and didn't capture my attention or flow for me at all. And I'm highly disappointed by that, because the premise seemed amazing. The story is about a young woman who is trying to find thr balance between being wife material and being her own person. She gets hired to work as a translator during WWII war crimes trial(s), but her boyfriend/fiance doesn't want her working. Her family refuses to discuss the war, and she just can't figure out why. Interesting premise, right?! But the delivery had no soul in it. Unfortunately I gave up rather than continue to read a story that wasn't holding my interest. All opinions are of course my own.
