This was an odd little book and I'm not quite sure what to make of it. It's written in a breazy, almost dream-like fashion, with the narrator jumping from thought-to-though. That's not to say that this is a light read - it's really not - but the writing style was very different than most books that I read. It really suited the story and it shows how detached our narrator was.

This is such a short book, so I'm sure I'll re-read it at some point. I liked the prose, so it's unfortunate that their aren't many well-known books by this author. However, if I come across any, I'll definitely pick it up.
