This was a compelling book to read. Initially the mystery of the murder of a young man draws one into the plot, but that murder is rather quickly made secondary to the mysteries of the community during WWII, communism and the later labor movement. The descriptions of the forest and fields, of farming and the weather are all beautiful. I found it difficult to keep track of the many characters introduced early in the book, so many had similarly difficult (Polish) names. It also took a little while for me to get the rhythm of the writing, which at least initially felt choppy to me. Those hurdles were well worth jumping over, this is a book I will be recommending to friends and relations.

Pretty interesting but ultimately disappointing. Source for The Ninth Gate.

There were some interesting aspects to this novel. Some of the events seemed implausible--the almost agoraphobic woman bonding right away with the little Fresh Air girl from Harlem, the neighbor's taking the girl for the two weeks considering her attitude toward her own child, and the whole turnaround of the woman's life. I guess that I am just being too skeptical. It is a charming tale, and I wondered what would happen once Katanya went home. Now I know.

Wow. Crazy ride, crazy story. Unpredictable and intense. I can't wait to see whaere Lisa takes the next story! Warning: Adult content , mature situations, and strong language. NOT for young teens!

Worth the read. A little scattered, but hey so was she. A witty and almost charming recount of a hellish time that stuck close to home for me. Parts of it are raw.

I bought this book for one of my siblings when they were born, and we all love this book. It's so true- no matter how much a kid says they love you, you probably love them more than they will ever know. Adorable for grandparents & parents.

I don't know how many stars to give this book. I felt like a spectacular failure when attempting to read it. I guess it should get 5 stars for defeating me. Hal Foster = 5 Stars, Anna = 0 Stars.

This was an interesting account of 13 influential bands from the American 80's underground. I appreciated that it tackled a few of the underlying causes surrounding the rise of independent music and I think one of the strongest parts of the book was the way it showed the development of an infrastructure on which indie music continues to build even today. I found it more interesting to learn about the creation of touring circuits by Black Flag and others as well as the labels that promoted these acts than it was to learn about the bands themselves. Ultimately, it left me wondering what the next wave of true independent music will look like. So much has changed in distribution and marketing since the 80's and "indie" has really become a marketable buzz word. I find myself dissatisfied with the culture as of late and almost wish that there was some sort of alternative alternative. At any rate, I'm fascinated by the idea of these bands each finding ways to live on the margins of society in different ways. The writing in the book is often strong, but I think comparatively the book comes off as less engaging than Rip It Up And Start Again, which was a wonderful account of post-punk music in Europe and the US. The latter really makes it a discussion of ideas driving a movement and how those ideas mutate and warp overtime through backlashes and disillusionment. Our Band certainly discusses some of the ideas driving the movement, but I think it often fails to draw parallels between bands in meaningful ways. It also stays more narrowly focused on fewer bands and fewer overall scenes, so the breadth is sometimes lacking. Often it feels like a collection of mini-biographies rather than an outright comprehensive work. That's not a totally fair assessment, but I think it suffers in comparison to Rip It Up. Still a very worthwhile read if you're interested in punk and its aftermath.
