Tangled is a complex and compelling story about a variety of uniquely and well developed personalities. This engaging novel draws the reader into the lives of children, women, men and elders and their relationships with each other, coupled by the all too familiar inner dilemma as these characters try to both find themselves and prove themselves simultaneously. The contrast between old world values and the North American contemporary way of being challenges the reader to question and perhaps even reconsider existing preconceived ideals. This book leaves the reader begging for a sequel. Our appetite has been wet and few books are up to the task of satisfying this insatiable hunger.
