Sixteen years after their death, Johanna Adorján fills the gaps in their story. An Exclusive Love is a brilliantly constructed memoir and a gorgeous romance, a tale of two people who died as they lived: inseparable. Review: From the Grandchildren of Survivors - Writer succeeds in writing about her own need and sentimentality in understanding her grandparents who survived in different but hard ways the excesses of the Nazis in Hungary on one side and the unsentimental personas of these Jewish grandparents. The story is the story of her grandparents last day, their planned suicide, the reasons, the way they go about this day and why they do it the way they do it. The why leads to the birth, circumstances and history of the grandparents, their friend's' account of them, their ambitions and their relationship. The main reason I really liked this book is that the writer has not made her grandparents too lovable,too cute, too understandable, hasn't tried to excuse,pry open and interpret these people or demonize anyone. It feels as close as it may be possible to talk about grandparents like these. Their Jewish heritage, Nazism, camps, science, love of music, Hungarian uprising, immigration and an exclusive marriage. Life that begins in the Hungarian world and ends in a neat tidy house in Denmark. Review: An Exclusive Love A Memoir - This is a beautifully told love/family tale in a well presented and compelling historical context. Told by the granddaughter who is very clear about what she absolutely Knows and what she doesn't. The author, and translator, speaks in an evocative and clear voice. I would definitely recommend this slim memoir. It's a great read. desertcart does a really good job of making customer recommendations based on past selections. I LIVE IN SEATTLE, WA.
