Why read it?
1 author picked Birdsong as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is the most touching love story I have ever read. I do not tend to read period dramas, and so I was hesitant to read a book set during the first world war.

From Victoria's list on vacation reads about love and friendship.
