A most unusual
treatise for a story. I wasn't sure how the author was going to carry it off.
In fact, I wasn't sure that I would
enjoy a story where the person had married someone and then discovered
that the person wasn't who they married at all.
But Ms. Jennings
uses the culture of that time, integrity, beliefs, and loyalties to make you
understand and root for her characters. As you discover the reasons for the
misunderstandings and see how the characters deal with what life has thrown
their way you find yourself turning the pages because you are so invested in
the story.
War wounds, not only
those physically involved, but those left behind. An Inconvenient Marriage is
thought provoking from several directions. Complicated relationships, life and
death issues, and the after effects of war and it's effects on daily living make
this story worth your time and investment.
This is one I will want to read again just to see what I missed.
The romantic
encounters were that--romantic. At the climax, the tension was palpable but things naturally evolved into a very
humorous outcome to a serious situation. You have to read to find out.
I received this book
from Netgalley for an honest review.
