Title: A parable of myth, magic and love
Product review: Winterson's writing is always unique--but there is a beautifully peculiar, Orlando-like surrealism to this novel... Set in a mythical, magical Venice where magic and deceipt are inseparable from reality and truth, this novel is deeply involving and startling almost every few pages (if not every page!).I don't want to spoil the plot for anyone... But suffice it is about (literally) giving one's heart. Sounds cliche'd, but it's not. Nothing of Winterson's can be. You will find yourself immersed in the dream-like intensity of this book.
