Mary Coin por Marisa Silver
Very good rendering of the intersection of lives based on two real people who created an icon of American history. A query into what is THE truth and what is the fabrication of A truth, how geography shapes destiny, and the strength of family connection.
Well-written and tragic story. Not something I would ever want to read again.
I'm not sure why I finished this book. It was interesting in the beginning and then it felt like it became another story altogether. Some parts were unnecessary, in my opinion. Otherwise, this book didn't really interest me but I finished it anyways.
I liked both the content and the writing of this book. It was very instructive regarding different aspects of life in the U.S. in the 1920's-1940's and even in to the 2000's. Both Dorothea Lange and the Migrant Mother she famously photographed are portrayed as they may have really been. I have not decided whether the addition of the Walker Dodge details were worth the confusion, but they added information. The writing and the metaphors were with dealing with, but I wonder if I would have learned more if the book had been clearer.… (más)
