a series to remember,

This review is from: Master of Jalna (Mass Market Paperback)
If you like family saga's spanning out over generations and generations you'll enjoy the Jalna series by Mazo De La Roche. The series consists of 16 books:Building of Jalna I have read the entire series from beginning to end and what sticks with me the most is the characters and their struggle with daily life. From the war to the depression to simply the life at Jalna running the orchard each character never steps outside of themselves even for a minute. No matter what type of person you are, or who you are there is going to be at least one character you sympathize with. Also the writing is flawless. Roche had this incredible way of describing settings and characters. She never over described anything but gave the house and those inside a whimsical feeling that makes the reader feel as though they are there and share in the experience. I know the series is out of print now, but look for them at your library or buy used copies, but if you are a fan of family sagas you won't want to miss this one. |
