Super story!
If you have read other books Dara Horn has written you will be so pleased with "The World to Come" - she has done it again - a great book!
If you have not read her before, get ready for a delight
You will love it, and then want to read her other titles :)

a good book
A good book which would have been a great one except for the final chapter which did not quite work. Still, very well written: I admire the way she weaves together Russian and Soviet horrors with Vietnam, with the present and with heavenly fantasy. I look forward to reading more of her fiction.
