As I Have Loved You
by Kitty De Ruyter-Bons
I found this book on our book shelf.
It is a book about a little girl in World War II Java who was incarcerated by the Japanese. It is almost compelling as long as that is the premise, but in the post-war section which is a lot of the book, the story becomes a rambling memoir - in a sense it is hard to see why one would want to be interested. In reality, it is not the story of the little girl - but the story of her mother who really was a spiritual strength through all of the trials.
It would be ok for a book club - but it is really just average.
