The Time is Noon
By Pearl S. Buck
-pgs: 314
An interesting story about the connections and relationships we develop with our family. In particular, this story focuses on the relationships one perceives as a child and how those change as one becomes an adult. The story was well written and well developed. The author really took the time to create three dimensional characters. However, there is not much action in the story and this could be a downside to certain readers. Instead, there is a lot of internal events that occur in this story. I found it was difficult to read for this reason; however, I was pleased that I spent my time reading such a deep book. If you would like to put in the time, then I would definitely recommend it.
