YA historical fiction novel about Georgina, a girl of eleven, who moves with her family in the 1840's to the wilds of Cincinnati, Ohio. The Borning Room is a room set aside for births and deaths of which Georgina experiences many. A good read. 101 pages ( ) Nice episodic, story about a family's history centered around a room where people are born and die. There is the grandfather who is spiritual and whose Sunday worship is spent outdoors in the woods; a runaway slave whose firsthand knowledge of childbirth is helpful; a teacher who lives with each of the families of his students; and others. I especially liked a paragraph in which the first-person narrator describes the light her mother brings to others and the flickering that she herself provides. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
