Three chapters in and I’m uncertain whether I can complete this novel. The complex asides and frequent trips into the past give this a strange rambling quality. Why do I care that Juan Diego’s going to Hong Kong? Unclear. His past has some interesting narrative questions. What happened to Lupe? Will read a bit more and see if I can get into it.

Ok I read 6 chapters and this one will have to be a DNF for me.
Why do literary novels ramble on inwith such pedantic esotera? That means bookish details, yeah.
No thanks. There’s too much religion and sex and jumping back and forth in time and back flashes and oddballs
And I cannot find anything likeable about the main character.
Maybe I’ll have better luck with the booker prize nominees.
