La gran novela de una de las grandes autoras contemporáneas.¿Mi nombre verdadero? Nadie lo recuerda.
¿Los sucesos de aquel verano? Nadie más los conoce. En el verano de 1862, un grupo de jóvenes artistas, guiados por el apasionado y brillante Edward Radcliffe, viaja a Birchwood Manor, una casa de campo en Berkshire. Tienen un plan: vivir los siguientes meses recluidos y dejarse llevar por su inspiración y creatividad. Sin embargo, cuando el verano toca a su fin, una mujer ha muerto de un disparo y otra ha desaparecido, se ha extraviado una joya de valor incalculable y la vida de Edward Radcliffe se ha desmoronado. Unos ciento cincuenta años más tarde, Elodie Winslow, una joven archivista de Londres, descubre una cartera de cuero que contiene dos objetos sin relación aparente: una fotografía en sepia de una mujer de gran belleza con un vestido victoriano y el cuaderno de bocetos de un artista en el que hay un dibujo de una casa de dos tejados en el recodo de un río. ¿Por qué ese boceto de Birchwood Manor le resulta tan familiar a Elodie? ¿Y quién es esa hermosa mujer que aparece en la fotografía? ¿Le revelará alguna vez sus secretos? Narrada por varias voces a lo largo del tiempo, La hija del relojero es la historia de un asesinato, un misterio y un robo, una reflexión sobre el arte, la verdad y la belleza, el amor y las pérdidas. Por sus páginas fluye como un río la voz de una mujer ya libre de las ataduras del tiempo y cuyo nombre ha caído en el olvido: Birdie Bell, la hija del relojero, la única persona que vio todo lo sucedido. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Winner of the Florida Book Awards Gold Medal
New York Times bestselling author and master of nonfiction spy thrillers Larry Loftis writes the first major biography of Corrie ten Boom, a Dutch watchmaker who saved the lives of hundreds of Jews during WWII--at the cost of losing her family and being sent to a concentration camp, only to survive, forgive her captors, and live the rest of her life as a Christian missionary.
The Watchmaker's Daughter is one of the greatest stories of World War II that readers haven't heard: the remarkable and inspiring life story of Corrie ten Boom--a groundbreaking, female Dutch watchmaker, whose family unselfishly transformed their house into a hiding place straight out of a spy novel to shelter Jews and refugees from the Nazis during Gestapo raids. Even though the Nazis knew what the ten Booms were up to, they were never able to find those sheltered within the house when they raided it. Corrie stopped at nothing to face down the evils of her time and overcame unbelievable obstacles and odds. She persevered despite the loss of most of her family and relied on her faith to survive the horrors of a notorious concentration camp. But even more remarkable than her heroism and survival was Corrie's attitude when she was released. Miraculously, she was able to eschew bitterness and embrace forgiveness as she ministered to people in need around the globe. Corrie's ability to forgive is just one of the myriad lessons that her life story holds for readers today. Reminiscent of Schindler's List and featuring a journey of faith and forgiveness not unlike Unbroken, The Watchmaker's Daughter is destined to become a classic work of World War II nonfiction.

Stunning Review
Format: Paperback
I thought the book was a great book. The book is about a man who is a journey to Santiago. But on his journey he encounters a lot of paths that he needs to over come. He has to dig deep down and find the true him and over come many things. The purpose of this trip is so he can become a new person and do many new things that he has not done before. This will bring out a new him and this will help him as he goes on in life after this journey.
The thing in the book that got me noteworthy was how he had the drive and how focused he was to make it to the end of his task. The strength of the book was it was very detailed and this was a very good thing. The weakness of the book to me was I thought the ending was just a little dry, I felt as tho they could have added just a little more to it. I like the authors writing style this was very good on how he wrote it. It was well written the words all followed very well and his was a great thing. I think the message of the book is to show you that no matter how hard things may get never give up. There is always a road of something to come at the end of everything.
I would recommend this book to anyone who likes a book about a journey or a path in someones life. I think it is good to read as a class because you really get to see what others think of the book together. I also think if you like a book about a person that is going thro something in life that this is a good book. The book just expresses so many trails and then he some how over comes everything. So if you like to read go head and buy the book.

I very much enjoyed the book
Format: Paperback

The book " The Pilgrimage" written by Paulo Chelho, is a story about one man on a quest to find his sword. During his journey he encounters multiple aids , hazards, and traitorous tribulations, that has him question not only his phish all capabilities, but his mental capabilities as well.Accompanying him on this journey is his guide Petrus, who leads him down the road to Santiago. Teaching him many different ram practices along the road. Throughout the book we see Paulo's overall character develop ,and mature through many vigorous challenges.
I very much enjoyed the book, for both content and overall story arch.I enjoyed the progression of all the characters, and looking into their minds, and experiencing their inner most thoughts. The story is extremely detailed, and vivid. This book always kept me on edge to see wether Paulo does in fact get his sword, or not. The book however did ramble at times, but in a nutshell it was rather intertwining for a book about two guys walking. I liked this book for the underlying message stating that the most hardest questions, often have the simplest answers.
I highly recommend this book if you want to kill some time. This book has a lot to offer, and will leave you questioning your self, and your own thought process. You would never want to put this book down because it keeps you in a stage of Suspense. Mostly , because it's a book you can take, and learn from. So if you are looking for a book that makes you reflect, this is the book for you.
