The first 200 pages were beautifully written and politically engaging. Once the protagonists started their new life in Chili the writing became dispassionate and tedious. It read like a history text rather than a historical novel.
I would recommend it as background to the Spanish civil war and political strife in South America but this is not award winning writing.
