Beautifully written - I loved the writing and although some of the subject matter was initially quite profane, the story morphs into a heartbreaking study of love, faith and belief. It was such an original story that takes you on a totally magical journey and you are either in for the ride or you're not. I was totally taken with this book - I read it as a library book, then I went and bought for myself. Then I bought it for my bestie. I have forced it on numerous people (as a loaner) and I think of it as a gift I'm giving them. My only beef is that I am still waiting for Andrew Davidson to write something else
While the main pylon of the book is a topic that stopped impressing me long time ago, I cannot but admire and applaud the author for finding new and unexpected ways to talk about a love story. The travel he creates for the reader through time and space is of an unbeatable charm. The dedication and passion for providing a sense of realism to what seems more appropriate in a psychiatric ward exude in each and every page. Highly recommended.
Extraordinary book, like no other I have ever read, you will remember it long after you finish.
Wow! What a creative and story. The characters are so unique and engrossing.
Wenn ich es lesen würde, hätte ich es bereits abgebrochen.
