Little Bee
by Chris Cleve
A best seller this year and I can see why. Again I get a political and history lesson from a novel. More so a current political lesson from news over seas we don't hear about nor do I care to hear during tough times. But these people's tough times are far worse and insane than we American's can imagine.
This is the lives of an English woman and an small African woman brought together by extreme tragedy on a beach in Nigeria.
It is very well written, provocative and quite captivating to read. The two women are the protagonists and with eloquence tell their personal stories of the main event and subsequent their lives as it merges together. It is tragic to the end, but they do emerge to a deep happiness fully felt through the words of this author.
