5.0 out of 5 stars The Best there is, the best there was and a whole lot more!!, October 27, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Camara De Gas / the Chamber (Spanish Edition) (Paperback)

This is Grisham at his best!!!! Although this was the first book I read of his, the latter is still very true. You will be emotionally involved and feel as if you are there with the characters through the good and the bad. I recommend this book to all who love grisham's writing and those who haven't tried him yet!!!!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars A fine translation of a good read, April 30, 2000

By	KENNETH E BARGER (Seattle, WA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Camara De Gas (Paperback)

John Grisham's tale of a Klan member on death row and his zealous, conflicted grandson is a hard yet tender story of complex characters in tough situations. Enric Tremps does a seamless job of translating it into Spanish, preserving the flow and emotion of the novel, a difficult task with such a uniquely American storyline. This is not great literature, but it's a well-written page-turner.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very intense entertainment., October 18, 1998

By A Customer

Must Read. Excellent story line, Spanish version very, very closely equals the American version. There were a very few areas where the Spanish translation did not perfectly paint the same mental image that was intended by the author, but over-all, an superior piece of work.
