This is my third copy. I came across this in a second hand shop, so I bought it home. This is an ok book, but not my favorite.

From Amazon.
Natalia is on a quest: to discover the truth about her beloved grandfather. He has died far from home, in circumstances shrouded in mystery.
Recalling stories her grandfather told her as a child, Natalia suspects he may have died trying to unravel two mysteries. One was the fate of a tiger which escaped during German bombing raids in 1941; the other a man who claimed to be immortal. But, as Natalia learns, there are no simple truths or easy answers in this landscape echoing with myths but still scarred by war.

"The Tiger's Wife" beckoned to me as I sat at the counter in a coffee shop because the title was in English. I was impressed with the glowing reviews, especially from Michiko Kakutani of the New York Times. I have great respect for her opinion and, thus, have high expectations for this book. I've just started reading it and will enter my rating later.
