The Rain Watcher

by Tatiana De Rosnay

The Rain Watcher is a powerful family drama set in Paris as the Malegarde family gathers to celebrate the father's 70th birthday. Their hidden fears and secrets are slowly unraveled as the City of Light undergoes a stunning natural disaster. Seen through the eyes of charismatic photographer Linden Malegarde, the youngest son, all members of the family will have to fight to keep their unity against tragic circumstances.

In this profound and intense novel of love and redemption, De Rosnay demonstrates all of her writer's skills both as an incredible storyteller but also as a soul seeker.

This is a slow plodding family story that ambles along. There's not much drama or confrontation which makes the book a bit of a bore and chore to read.

I received a copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
