Sonnichsen, A.L. Red Butterfly, 385 p. Simon, 2015. $17.
Content: G.
Kara has always lived a quiet, hidden life in China with her
American mother and an American father who has not been back to China since she
was a little girl. When her American
sister visits and become ill, Kara’s world falls apart as she learns why she
has been kept a secret all of these years.
Now the decision to what to do with Kara leaves her in limbo.
This novel had no need to be written in verse. It would be much better rearranged in novel
form, as everything is written in complete sentences and nothing poetic exists
within its pages except its form. I just
had to ignore the breaks and read the story to enjoy it. Would someone reformat this please?
