Kristin hannah the great alone summary5/25/2023 ![]() ![]() Hannah does an extraordinary job of seeing the war from the children’s point of view. She shows how married couples with children, can, over the years, lose their “couple-ness” and take one another for granted, and in the process lose their passion that was the reason they got married in the first place. ![]() It isn’t uncommon for people who have been married for years to become strangers that share children and a home. ![]() In Home Front, Hannah faces the less talked about part of marriage head on. Not only does she expertly show these faults, but she is able to embrace them and makes these downfalls and dark thoughts normal and human. She gets human emotions and is not afraid to show a character’s ugly side in a very real way. Sometimes I was so engrossed with the story that I would realize that I had been crying and didn’t know when the tears started. I always cry.ĭuring Home Front - which I read in three days with an infant in my house - I cried at least three times. As usual, I feel close to the characters, I learn a lot, and I cry. My Thoughts (from 2012): I literally just finished this book five minutes ago and I have to say Kristin Hannah NEVER disappoints me. ![]()
