"If you can bear the suffering of keeping the names and relationships of the characters in this novel straight in your head and perform the mental acrobatics necessitated by the dizzying scenic shifts, you're in for a treat. What is brilliant about this novel is that the disjointedness and madness of narration and perspective are only an illusion; it's actually one of the most carefully-crafted works I've ever read." — May 15, 2015 10:03PM

"I've tried to read this one but kept forgetting about it and ending up having to start over about 5 times since high school or college. I remember it being amazing so I don't remember why I lost interest. I can't wait to properly start it (for real this time!) finish it (for real this time!)." — May 12, 2015 06:40PM
