Book Reviews of House of Sand and Fog (Oprah's Book Club) (Vintage Contemporaries)
Book Review: A great story - filled with hope, sadness, and despair.
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the best books I've ever read. The story touches every emotion - the hope of a new beginning for the former Iranian Colonel trying to find peace and happiness for his family in America, a country so different than his own; sadness and pity for Kathy Lazaro who finds it more and more difficult to face each new day and the reality it brings; disgust for Lester Burdon, a Deputy Sheriff who has learned how to hide behind his badge and uniform and finally despair and tragedy as the Colonel's hopes and dreams for a new life for his family come to tumbling finality. An excellent book - the writing makes it easy for you to become a part of each character and hope, suffer, and even cry with each new obstacle they face.
