Title: Poetic Prose, but a Little Confusing
Review: Some of the more lyrical passages in this novel are breathtaking, and the basic story line is an intriguing one. However, the plot twists and turns with flashbacks and different narrators that are difficult to keep track of at times. That said, it's one of very few novels that I KNOW I will reread someday. One piece of advice: it's best not to put the book aside for a few days, but rather read it straight through with only short breaks. Trying to recapture the story is challenging. It's not a light beach read, but perhaps a good read for a long, holiday air trip when you have no distractions.
