Resenhas
When the Bough Breaks and other stories de Naomi Mitchison
Tales of slavery and defeat set in Greek and Roman times.
Good quick read touching on serious topics ie. politics, greed, violence and love.
The beginning of this book is its strength, it kind of looses its power forward the end. Despite that I would recommend it and read more by the author.
Oh, I am so glad I finally read this book. A fairy tale that is a delight, a comfort read that is also dark and grim. This is a fantasy book that went against the fantasy canon before there was one. Now I just have to get my hands on all the other books Naomi Mitchison had written.
