However a lot of people have found this book life-changing and brilliantly written and intensely poetic. Do give it a try, it might be just the book for you. If you feel it is not however - do not struggle like I did and do not finish the book in vain hope to see some explanation in the end, there's no revelation involved.
For more Booker worthy magical realism, why not check out [[Midnight's Children by Salman Rushdie]] - I loved it and wholeheartedly recommend it. You ''might'' enjoy [[The Ascent of Isaac Steward by Mike French]]. We thought it... odd.
I would like to thank the publishers for sending this book to The Bookbag.
