At last, some good book

The books I reviewed recently are mostly, I would say, non-orthodox. I am a bit embarrassed that I like reading this stuff, but here is something for a change.

"Цветы корицы, аромат сливы" is a great book by all accounts. There was a comment to one of my recent reviews that the Russian language used in all the books I mention (except Pelevin) is mediocre. This is true, but this book is the exception.

If you look at the author, her most prominent book is "Школа в Кармартене". I did not like that one. "Цветы корицы" share some good properties of "школа" like humor and language, but is a bit easier on a reader as there is actually some story, though still there is no villain.
