Unusual set up and sentence structure for a novel. I don't know if it was just a bad time to read this book, but I kept putting it down and coming back to it much later. This, coupled with the disjointed sentences made the book or hard to follow.

Interesting read. The sentences could be taken out of story and just pondered, like little quotes of wisdom or a type of philosophy.

This has been on my shelf for ever - a strange almost murder mystery (I think there were three, maybe four bodies by the end, and two house -consuming fires) yet told in a totally fragmented way, constant shifts in time and pov, text laid out like blank verse, lots of references to Greek mythology and more coincidences and cases of mistaken identity than Shakespeare. Did I love it? No. But man, I was intrigued and can't wait to read another one of her books.

(fwiw - this is a time when the star rating system is an epic fail.)

I did not care for the styhle of this book, and probably would not have completed it if it hadn't been such a quick read. The stories were ok made a little more interesting by the style of writing, but I would not recommend this book. I do wonder if I missed something that would hve made it more worth my time.
