A blend of historical fiction, romance, and mystery. It is a modern-day Dr. Zhivago!
Some of the prose was a bit flowery:
"Tonya smiles along with him, as if she can already taste the succulent sweetness of wild strawberries, can imagine the juice running down their faces like blood."
"She uses the same tea leaves every morning, but the ritual is a remnant of life before the war. She will do it until the leaves are brewed into the air."
"...every day, Valentin looks more and more like the tea leaves, being strained into dust."
You get the picture. Still, very readable. The fairy tales, written by the author, were mesmerizing.
The mystery behind Rosie's family tragedy is never solved. That was disappointing.
