I loved this book in every way. It took a little while to understand the structure and to get used to switching from the storyline of one character to another. In the end, I loved and empathised with every single character, even the ones who seemed evil to begin with. The book made me continue to think for several days afterwards, as new ideas and connections clarified themselves in my mind. The writing was beautiful. The author handles language wonderfully well.
