I originally read this book years ago and could not put the book down. I used to be an avid reader but the past couple years have not had much time for reading. About a year ago I got talking to one of my new co-workers who happened to be from Poland. We talked about many things and when we got on the subject of books I had asked her if she had read Push Not The River. She hadn't, so I had to order it for her as she was heading to Poland and wanted a book to read while traveling. At the same time I got my old copy out and started reading it again. I was just as addicted to it as the first time I had read it. It's very rare for me to find a book that I can almost feel a part of. Martin's thorough descriptions and amazing storyline allows the reader to feel as if they are living in the moment. So many emotions and such a tear jerker. He writes about an important historical period in Eastern Europe and puts a personal spin on it to keep the reader on edge. When my friend returned from Poland she absolutely loved the book and ordered the rest of the trilogy immediately. She said it was a good portrayal of what she learned in school in regards to polish history. I'm not one for history books but I have to say this book from cover to cover was everything a good book should be from start to end. Hands down one of my favorite books of all time.
I had to laugh reading some of the reviews 'bodice ripper" really-each to their own...I really really liked this book so much so that i read it in one sitting....don't recomend that. Ania, Zofia and Aunt Stella - all women unto themselves and each with their own agenda. Aunt Stella-a woman steeped in the Polish standards of what is expected of nobility and women's role in it and yet to the end she suprises all with her flexible attitude and love. Zofia her daughter so easy to vilify who wants only for herself at any cost and at the end pays the final cost. And then Ania the country mouse whom everyone understimateed.....turns that to her advantage and suprises all. I really do not care if the history is correct or not but I do know enough of Polands history that this was a very painful and horrible time which virtually left no one unscathed. I thought this was a great book with such character development and turns well thats why I read it in one sitting!
I was excited when I picked up this book. I expected a great historical novel based on the tragic events of the late XVIII century Poland, when the country has been partitioned by the European superpowers of Russia, Prussia and Austria. However, the novel is a mere love story set up within historical context. Yes, we read about important events like Constitution of May 3rd and Kosciuszko Insurrection, and we meet some historical figures like King Stanislaw and Kosciuszko himself, but there is no dimension to these historical heroes and no color to the major events unfolding during that time Poland lost its independence. James Conroyd Martin is no Bernard Cornwell or Maurice Druon. However, the style of writing is pleasing and the main fictional characters are well developed. I'd prefer to read book based more on real people of that forgotten time than fictional love struck protagonists but at least i have to give one thing to the author - he has tried to keep as much of Polish culture and folk traditions in his writing as possible.
The first book of Martin's trilogy is based on the diary of Countess Anna Maria Berezowska in the last few years leading up to the third and final partitioning of Poland in 1795.It's challenging to turn the chronology of a diary into a story and Martin succeeds remarkably well. There were places I was frustrated with the main character for being a bit of a goose and I had to remind myself the author laid out events as written by the woman who lived them. I'm reading with modern eyes and in that time and place I surely would have behaved no differentlyThe strength of Martin's writing is the attention to historical accuracy. I'm fairly well-versed in Polish history and read with a cautious eye. He takes the reader deep into the Polish culture of that time period and shows the upheaval wrought by the ambitions by three militaristic neighbours, Russia, Austria and Prussia bent on a war on conquest and eradication of Poland. Anna suffers personal tragedy in her own life, but she, like Poland, rises above it and fights to keep going, though not without pain and loss.Poland recovered itself as a nation after disappearing for 123 years though it took an additional 70 years to achieve its happy ending. Reading Anna's story it becomes obvious why Poland rose again. Being Polish is more than lines on a map.
Push Not the River by James Conroyd Martin is an epic tale of Poland in the late 1700s, based on the diaries of Lady Anna Maria Berezowska, a member of Polish aristocracy.When both of her parents die within a short span of time, Anna must leave the only home she’s ever known. With Russian Empress Catherine’s armies poised to dismember the Polish state, Anna’s only protection is her Aunt Stella. When her ailing aunt is unable to provide the protection she needs, especially when she is maneuvered into marriage with a dissolute and abusive man, she turns to Jan, also a member of the aristocracy, but a supporter of more democracy and freedom for the peasantry, which puts him at odds with a large segment of his fellow aristocrats.With Poland’s fate hanging in the balance, and a new-born son to protect, Anna must make decisions. The decisions she makes transform her into a major player in Poland’s quest for freedom. At the same time, she must deal with the machinations of her fiery cousin, Zofia, who is not sure where she stands on any issue but living a life filled with fun, wealth and frivolity.With its main focus on Anna, this semi-autobiographical bit of historical fiction is populated with characters who, while sometimes larger than life, are limned in such a way to be relatable. Some you’ll love and admire; others you’ll want to see drawn and quartered; but you won’t forget any of them.
