Review title: a great book
Product review: Don't read the all the reviews posted here if you don't want to find out the ending before you read the book. (I don't know why people do that!?) As for it being, according to some readers, slack-paced, and, according to other readers, too fast-paced, it is both slack-paced and fast-paced at exactly the right times. Tension builds slowly into a wildly active climax. This is a very classical way to build a plot. Shakespeare used it, not to mention every great storyteller. It is the shape of myth. It's what I want out of a long novel. As the story gets longer, the effects of earlier actions and decisions accrue at an increasing speed, and people do get their poetic justice. . .which might not always happen in life but I love it when it happens in stories. I couldn't put it down. It's beautifully funny, and serious, and poignant.The main characters is very sympathetic, but every single minor character is complex and memorable as well.
