It certainly is a haunting story, and I'm glad it's an exploration of what happens next rather than a retelling.nomadreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04795144320842413060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7675736270871747288.post-87378676660135308392012-04-07T20:20:58.046-07:002012-04-07T20:20:58.046-07:00I honestly don't know the story of Mme Butterf...I honestly don't know the story of Mme Butterfly but this book sounds completely fascinating to me.
