As the title says its about love, but more than that the books talks about a a very sensitive topic of "freedom". Marcus's hope of getting out of the plantation and go somewhere where he would be treated like a person and not a slave, is infectious. I wanted him to make it. But even in his death there was the hope of being free. He died free. He died in love. He fought for freedom and died for it. Really good book with a lot of deep meaning. A quiet and smooth novel of debilitation, defiance, and hope. For fans of Gaines' more recent work such as A Lesson Before Dying, the themes and racial tensions here will be recognized, though stylistically Of Love and Dust clearly comes from a less experienced writer. Still, though the writing here is slightly less mature than Gaines' readers might expect, the story is as powerful as ever, and his characters just as much a drive to tension and story. This is a quiet worthwhile journey. Recommended. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
