Enjoyed this. Interesting storyline about small town America, corruption, bullying - institutional and familial. Some of the characters are a little sketchy, and stereotypical and I felt they could have been filled out more, but the relationship between Lydia and Bill is interesting. This story is told from Bill's point of view and I suspect it answers questions about his background from previous titles in the serie

Still dipping in and out.

I loved this. Very simple, sparing writing, no flowery language but beautiful.

This is a book to dip in and out of so I may never finish it...

This is so much stranger than I remember. I was reading it for my ESOL reading group and constantly wondering what they would make of it. The upshot being they found it too strange and difficult to understand. Would it be sacreligious to say I was disappointed by this English Classic?

Excellent book...so many themes and threads in it. Full of tragedy and sadness but also love and friendship. The characters are strange and interesting...

Again the page number is irrelevant. I am never finished a poetry book...
