Normally i would never thought of reading a Danielle Steel's book but this particular one attracted my attention. "Bittersweet" how do people define this word? The first time i saw the book it reminded me much of a chocolate from beryl's. so funny that the fav chocolate i like turn to be a book i recently love. funny aint it? but its cool.
the book tells us a story about a married woman that was stuck to a husband she thought loved her. over 17 years of marriage never once occured to her that the only thing her husband had in mind was to tie her wings by taking care of the family, as a chauffer and cook. her life wasn't all that bad but it all turn bad when she realise one day when all her 4 children grew older she was lost and missed her old life that is as a photojounarlist. stories (uncovering the sadness of other people through her camera lens...covering in kenya, bosnia, etc and helping them in a way) Remembering all that she tried to talk senses into her husband to take up assignments once in awhile, something nearby but sadly he opposed the decision. From there onwards, their relation cracked and she finally got to know that her marriage to her husband was part of a "deal" once said out when she decided to marry him and forget her carrier. A perfectly closed door to the other world. It gloom her when her husband told her that she can't expect them to be crazy in love after all those years. its just too childish. so, with that she just closed herself for him until he finally met a guy named Paul Ward whom is married to the famous author Serena Smith. Summer at Cape Code for her was the best that year. India (her name) learn how to break free after the encouragement Paul gave her. Started with fear till she had the guts to stand up for herself infront of her husband, Doug. Friendship bond started between them accidently. From there the ups and down of a crisis appear one by one uncovering the truth. A bewitching, dynamic and heart throbbing tale of a woman that wants to do something out of herself and insearch of herself after those years blocked.
how about it guys? don't you think this is rubbish? and hell yeah there are those kind of guy out there who just wont listen to us (women) even after all the modern civilizations. I love this book as it gives true meaning of what life could be. In a way could change most lives. It gives courage to women out there that is stuck with a life crisis how to deal with it and endure the pain as it fades. Need not to be rough as India potrayed a humble, sweet and soft woman with strong eagerness to make her dream come true. Not everything in this world is done with violence. She made it in the end and became stronger than ever for herself and her children.
Give it a try..nothing to loose....Peace for all the women in this world! We are the feminity and best creature alive! *hUgS*
