Moloka'i

Upon the recommendation of a friend, I chose the book Moloka'i by Alan Brennert to read for our book club next week. Following the life of Rachel as a young girl, the novel traces her story as she is sent to live in the leper colony in Hawai'i as a young girl. While the writing is ordinary, the story is compelling, the characters real.
