Great reading and a wonderful lesson
Revisado: 05-18-21
This book opened me to the many problems that the racial inequities in our world. I adore and appreciate the author's experience and courage to continue education on the systemic racism in our "modern" society. Is it really 21st century of our civilization? We have so much to learn and change. I know I learned a lot. However, I am worried about the author's endorsement of one of the Seattle council members that abused the public funds and promotes the political model that does not have place in our country.

Historia
A sophisticated, pause-resisting double love story spanning 40 years-an unforgettable Brief Encounter for our times. It is 1960. When Jennifer Stirling wakes up in the hospital, she can remember nothing-not the tragic car accident that put her there, not her husband, not even who she is. She feels like a stranger in her own life until she stumbles upon an impassioned letter, signed simply "B", asking her to leave her husband. Years later, in 2003, a journalist named Ellie discovers the same enigmatic letter in a forgotten file in her newspaper's archives.

Historia
Jane Eyre follows the emotions and experiences of eponymous Jane Eyre, her growth to adulthood, and her love for Mr. Rochester, the byronic master of Thornfield Hall. The novel contains elements of social criticism, with a strong sense of morality at its core, but is nonetheless a novel many consider ahead of its time given the individualistic character of Jane and the novel's exploration of sexuality, religion, and proto-feminism.

A classic story. The volume of the narration changes from almost whispering to shouting, making listening somewhat challenging.

Historia
Secrets, mistaken identities, surprise revelations, amnesia, locked rooms and locked asylums, and an unorthodox villain made this mystery thriller an instant success when it first appeared in 1860, and it has continued to enthrall ever since. From the hero's foreboding before his arrival at Limmeridge House to the nefarious plot concerning the beautiful Laura, the breathtaking tension of Collins's narrative created a new literary genre of suspense fiction, which profoundly shaped the course of English popular writing.

A settle mystery, nothing extremely captivating. A good array of characters and events but nothing shocking or very original.
