5.0 out of 5 stars an unusual book, 12 Mar 2009
By karin schmidt "karoline" (North West Scotland) - See all my reviews
BREATH by Michael Symmons Roberts. A very well written novel about 2 parts of a country that has been on war some time ago. The lung of a young man who died in a road accident must be taken from the south to the north by plane for a transplant. The recipient is an old man who was very cruel during the war - and the dead young man is the son of a person from the opposite political spectrum. As the lung must get to the north very fast the plane has to go on a night flight. This is told down to the smallest details - it left me in fact kind of "breathless". The people involved, their destinies, thoughts, emotions, guilt - everything intervoven in this book. I recommend it very much and apologize that I am not a sophisticated person and can't write a very intelligent review.
