5.0 out of 5 stars
A story of another era and results of one man's lifestyle,
By Dorothy Pingel (dpingel@ix.netcom.com) (St. Louis, Missouri USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Prologo Al Amor (Hardcover)
I read this story thirty years ago and just again reread it. It is just as compelling today and hard to set down once started. Taylor Caldwell's command of words and beautiful descriptions of life in the era it was written is beyond comparison. A vibrant story with a pulse of its own to stir the heart and mind of the reader.

Into the heart of the innocent.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Prologo Al Amor (Hardcover)
Caroline Ames is yet another one of the innocent characters created by Taylor Caldwell. In this novel she portrays the innocent mind better than in any other book she has written. Caroline is subject to her father's sheltering ways. Her father finds security in money because he was poor as a child, and this security has made him one of the richest men in the world. He wants Caroline to care for his money after he dies, so he forces her into a life-style that is equivalent to the homeless today in hopes that she will learn to appreciate money like he does. Doing this, he shelters her until she knows nothing but what she is taught from him. Her father then dies, and Caroline is forced to survive in a world she knows nothing about or even has the desire to understand. She fights through marriage and torn relationships without realizing that she is wrong in everything she does. The innocent mind is amazing and almost admirable, but Taylor Caldwell gives us a new look at the unknowing mind, showing how what we do not know or understand can ultimately destroy us

One of the single best books I have ever read,
By alangregor@aol.com (u,s,a) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Prologo Al Amor (Hardcover)
Too many words confuse the review. The depth of research, the story line etc. put the author in times that you have to believe she lived even though she did not. An acclaimed story line from a very talented past authot/
