2.0étoiles sur 5 Not Bad, But Not Her Most Uplifting Work, Either, Déc 31 2001
Par Cookie Monster's Wife (Philadelphia, PA USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
The other Binchy works I have read, Tara Road, The Glass Lake, Circle of Friends, even the Return Journey (a book of short stories) seem more balanced than this. Those seemed to address both the ups and downs of life. The Copper Beech seems more focused on the despairs. It is not poorly written, just a bit of a downer. Definitely not something to read if you are pregnant, as I am at the moment.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Wonderful author!, Nov. 29 2001
Par Karen Potts (Lake Jackson, Texas) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
Maeve Binchy can write a story with the best of them. Her characters come to life and the reader really cares about them, since she writes about their hope and dreams, as well as their activities. In The Copper Beech, Binchy details the lives of different people in a small Irish town. Most of the characters are local children who have carved their names in the copper beech tree outside of their school. She describes the class distinctions in the town, which sometimes separate those who have been schoolmates, after they leave their school days. The final chapter ties the characters together and lets the reader in on what has happened to the people that have been described throughout the book. This is a wonderful read!

1.0étoiles sur 5 Pedestrian, Nov. 27 2001
I had never read Binchy and was not expecting much, since she regularly appears on bestseller lists. The entire plot can be summarized by the last chapter in which all of the characters lives are resolved into happy, rewarding ones with a wave of Binchy's word processor. Conflicts are resolved offstage, probably because she cannot write about anything more intense than a walk in the woods. Married couples are rewarded with precisely 3 children by the book's end and self-sacrificing types, like Maura, who is a thief and blackmailer, are given the town's love and sympathy. The world Binchy is writing about never existed; she completely ignores the challenges of historical setting and character development for the pablum of pop fiction.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Oh, to be Irish!
The Copper Beech isn't a book for those looking for alot of fast paced action. Instead it's the kind of book that is slow paced and one you don't want to have end. Lisez davantage

4.0étoiles sur 5 Very Sweet Book
I do rather think that the copper beech tree would have succumbed long ago to all those inroads on its bark. The book is that kind of interweaving story that I like so much. Lisez davantage

4.0étoiles sur 5 Warm and cozy, just add a cup of tea.
That is what a Binchy novel is like to me. Hers are books I enjoy for the places she idyllically paints and the characters she puts forth to become a part of her homespun... Lisez davantage

3.0étoiles sur 5 Good, but not my favorite Binchy
Maeve Binchy is one of my favorite authors. To me, her writing is like a mini-vacation from home, and Ireland is definitely a place I'd like to visit. Lisez davantage

3.0étoiles sur 5 Not one of her better books
I have read 4 of Meave Bincy's books now and this one was a disappointment. Didn't seem to hold my interest as well as "CIrcle of Friends" or "Firefly Summer".

5.0étoiles sur 5 A Colorful Read
I'm not a Maeve Binchy fan or anything but this book was good enough to keep me up late at nite reading it. I love all her characters in the book. They're all so colorful. Lisez davantage

3.0étoiles sur 5 Not the usual Binchy
Although the story was a good one, it was not the usual Maeve Binchy. The mini character stories were choppy and not developed in the usual Binchy fashion. Lisez davantage
