review 1: This book began really strongly for me. There was a deep sense of place, I was enjoying getting to know the rather damaged residents of the neighborhood, there was a mystery to solve, but it just sort of fell apart for me. It turns out there really was no mystery. It was just a dull and depressing story. I found the Jonathan/Val storyline creepy, and the only character I really liked was Fadi. It was a letdown.
review 2: Una storia fatta di dettagli, a volte così meticolosi da trascinarti dentro la narrazione; una storia che parla di magia, ma del tutto particolare: quella di riuscire a parlare con i morti e trascurare i vivi; la magia di una voce; di murales che prendono vita e sogni tanti sogni che a volte s'infrangono duramente sulla riva della vita,
... morealtre volte arrivano a destinazione, seguendo percorsi inconsueti come quelli del perdono o di un bacio che contiene infinite promesse e un futuro nuovo di zecca. less

Boring and plodding.
