adorará Adira ao LibraryThing para descobrir se gostará deste livro. Read this book because I heard it reviewed. I also have a son named Ben. Liked the book - the movie not so much. Didn't like the book as much as I had hoped to. ( )I loved this book and have read it a few times. I especially love the author's voice for Vincent. The guilt he felt mixed with the withdrawal from his mother, dealing with her own grief, was well done. And the whole storyline is one where there really feel like no one can win, but you keep hoping anyway. Compelling book about the horror of losing a child and the aftermath that shatters a family. One of the most depressing books I've ever read sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
Amazon.com (ISBN 0140286276, Paperback)Oprah Book Club® Selection, September 1996: The horror of losing a child is somehow made worse when the case goes unsolved for nearly a decade, reports Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel columnist Jacquelyn Mitchard in this searing first novel. In it, 3-year-old Ben Cappadora is kidnapped from a hotel lobby where his mother is checking into her 15th high school reunion. His disappearance tears the family apart and invokes separate experiences of anguish, denial, and self-blame. Marital problems and delinquency in Ben's older brother (in charge of him the day of his kidnapping) ensue. Mitchard depicts the family's friction and torment--along with many gritty realities of family life--with the candor of a journalist and compassion of someone who has seemingly been there. International publishing and movie rights sold fast on this one: It's a blockbuster.(retirado da Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:01 -0400) A primeira ronda de testes foi já encerrada.
