Book Reviews of Julia Alvarez's "In the Time of the Butterflies": A Study Guide from Gale's "Novels for Students" (Volume 09, Chapter 6)
Book Review: Maybe it's a school book, but it's a darn good read
Summary: 4 Stars
"A soul is like a deep longing in you that you can never
fill up, but you try. That is why there are stirring poems
and brave heroes who die for what is right" -Minerva
In a nutshell I expected this book to be dry and dull. What I discovered was this book is beautifully written and had great character development. The narration shifts between the four main female characters which actually helps draw the reader in. Also, knowing that there is a seed of truth surrounding this work of fiction makes it all the more interesting.
All I can say is this book was a pleasure read and captivates the imagination.
