Author: Sebastian Faulks
They say that good things can leave you speechless. Well... this is one of them. How to write about a book that is so good that you can't even find appropriate words to describe it's greatness? Of course, as you know, nothing in this world is perfect; however, some is quite close to perfection.
Prior to reading this book, I've never heard about Sebastian Faulks before, and that's why I was so intrigued to find out what this noted author is all about. Frankly speaking, I was very happy to make this acquaintance, as I'm now very much looking forward to reading another work by Mr. Faulks. But now let's get back to business and talk about "Birdsong". I guess, you may not call it a typical novel, and I wasn't in love with it at first, but in the course of time, I've grown to like it a lot. The story could be divided into 3 parts where the actions take place - before the World War I, during the war and in the late 70s. These three periods are completely different in their atmosphere and the emotional experiences of the characters.
