Summary: It could have been real!
Comment: This is a book I never would have believed to be fiction unless it told me. The characters feel real. There are a lot of people to keep track of and sometimes it goes back and forth in time but there is a useful family tree in the front of the book that I kept referring to.
I got a feel for Costa Rica past and present and I enjoyed the stories of the different characters. I am going to have some of my students read it and I highly recommend it!

Summary: Gee what a wonderful novel
Comment: I stumbled on Ms Ferre's work and quickly became addicted to it. The intimations of Puerto Rican history here are subtle and artistically wrought. Comparisons to Garcia Marquez are unfair but probably inevitable. She's not in that league, neither in imagination nor narrative gifts. But she's still one heck of a storyteller and her characters are wonderfully evoked. Unputdownable, especially if you know a bit about Puerto Rico and its history.

Summary: fabulous and intriguing family saga set in Puerto Rico.
Comment: Eccentric Neighborhoods is a family story written in a magical and poetic fashion. A love story , a family history as well a history of Puerto Rico unfolds for the reader.
