  Them by Francine Du Plessix Gray (2005)
Review created: 12/28/06

I found the topic interesting, especially the time spent trying to leave France during WWII. The writer's style had many adjectives, such as "my frivolous, luxury-loving mother returning to an increasingly frugal Russia." Plus, how many paragraphs are needed to describe a bathroom? So wearying to read! If you want to read about snobs, this book is for you.
