This is a fictionalized"retelling" of the story of Hosea and Gomer from the bible. It's a beautiful love story reset in the west during the Gold Rush.At times it seems to go a little slowly but the story itself and most of the people you meet in the book are well worth the read. There are parts that are not pleasant to read, peoples inhuman treatment of others etc. but not done for shock value, but rather that's how it happened to many.I would recommend it to friends .... in fact I did. Our Book Club is reading it this month and from the feedback I've heard from friends they love it.
