Not a bad read but at times one that was difficult, to read due to the subject matter contained in he book.

Really enjoyable read. Good characters and a Good story. Well worth a read. Think others will. Enjoy

mbuing the cultural differences of Germans and Navajo, The Hummingbird’s Cage takes you deep into the recesses of domestic violence and the awakening strength a person must find to face the end, be it there own or the enemy’s. Cultures may differ in some cases but in others they are very much the same, to look inward towards the proof of what we as humans have found to sustain our souls and carry on in spite of what we believe to be our last moment of life. In finding her freedom, Joanna also finds her courage.

The Hummingbird's Cage by Tamara Dietrich deals with Domestic Violence which is tackled sensitively and realistically.

This book is so very different to anything that I have read. Because of that I found it gave me a lot to think about. I really enjoyed it. Joanna is an abused wife, she lives in a small American town. Her husband is a local policeman and she knows no-one will believe her accusations of abuse. Joanna and her young daughter manage to escape the town but it's not long before her husband is chasing them, sirens blaring. There is a crash and when Joanna wakes up she and her daughter are in the town of Morrow. They are well taken care of and the townsfolk are wonderfully friendly and caring. Joanna could stay there forever but knows that to have peace she must face her husband then be finally free. A brilliant read.
