Gorgeous!,
By Margaret Dybala "too many books, too little time" (Pearland, Texas United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: The Book of Tobias (Dedalus Europe 2000 S.) (Paperback)
It doesn't do the book justice to say that it is a contemporary retelling of the story of Tobias from the Old Testament. This book was so elegantly written (at least in the English translation, which I am assuming was probably still not as good as the original French) that I was just stunned. I read portions to my family who were as enthralled by the beautiful descriptions as I was. The basic story is a history of a family from the perspective of Deborah, a young Jewish woman who loses everyone she loves, one by one, to disaster. Over her long life, God is silent, but she is still faithful. Of course, anyone who has read the original bible story knows that an angel, Raphael, assists the family -- and how beautifully that is portrayed in the book. I recommend this book without reservation and look forward to reading Ms. Germain's books.

If you dont venture Outside your box every now and again, growth will not be part of your Life. I am so glad I didn't miss this poetic love story. God will lead you.
