Il protagonista egrave; un eroe giovane; con le sue incertezze e debolezze; ma che racchiude in seacute; la forza e lrsquo;entusiasmo tipici della giovinezza; sostenuti da un grande cuore; da un incrollabile senso della giustizia e dalla irremovibile convinzione che alla fine il bene vince sempre sul male.

As a non-fiction lover. I read a lot of cultural and social histories and this book ranks among the best of the genre.The book is filled with interesting stories about every aspect of diamonds. I was particularly taken with a few chapters. First. if you dont know about Jakob the Jeweler. the man that made millions selling to the Hip-Hop elite. skip straight to that chapter-- such a crazy story! But the sections of the book that dive deep into De Beers and their history are the best part: I ate up pages about their savvy marketing campaigns. their push to get diamond engagement rings to be the standard symbol of marriage proposals. and the battle they waged against lab-made diamonds.Bergstein has a way of making a book about glorified rocks shine brighter than the diamonds she writes about. Anyway. sorry for the gushing. I read a lot of bad non-fiction.PS - the book has great COLOR photos. Always a plus!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Interesting readBy Suzanne E.
