Journal Entry 1 by Zyana from Porto - City, Porto Portugal on Sunday, July 20, 2003
The value of this memoir derives, not from the detached, factual, and often impassive style in which It's written but rather the fact that it portrays true events and depicts one story of survival, not unlike many other thousands but which possesses that almost unbelievable quality of deriving from true events too horrid to comprehend and too cruel to accept. It's not just a story of physical survival but spiritual and emotional one ...

Not a literary masterpiece but certainly a human feat put into simple, crushing words that will haunt you and make you cringe deep, deep down.

Journal Entry 2 by Peter-Cain on Friday, November 7, 2003
I didn´t quite " caught" the book, I did a booksearch right here on this site and then wrote a PM to Zyana who had a copy.
As for " what you plan to do with it", well, obviously I plan to read it and then return it ( unless I like it too much, then I will steal it and blame it on the portuguese posting service; just kidding).
