I have had this book for two years now, borrowed it from a friend and finally read it when she demanded to have it back, and am I glad I read it.
It is a sad book, beginning to end. There are some good moments in it but they also make you feel sad. It made me feel that I have lived what people were living during polio, and how even though the fear is mostly for the children but the adults weren’t spared too.
A great book that still has that after effect on me that I just want to pick it up and read it again.
If you haven’t read it yet, I recommend you do
