I've been ridiculously overdue in updating The Literary Wives. My apologies. We have met as a book club and discussed books, movies, kids, and life but I haven't recored anything here since January. Whoops!
So here we go with a semi-clean slate...Buffy has chose The Tiger's Wife by Tea Obreht for our May/June read.
This novel has received a good amount of press and the reviews are varied. One reviewer noted: "The Tiger's Wife" will seduce and confound, fascinate and exasperate" (see the full review here). At it's very basic level, it's a story of a grandfather and a granddaughter. A tiger and a mystery. Multiple layers woven into one story and yet many separate stories. Hmmm...intriguing or maybe frustrating (as the description of Little Bee frustrated me).
We'll gather as a group mid-June (if the majority have read the book by then) to discuss and share our impressions. Happy reading!
