The purplest of prose. 100 pages in and NOTHING has happened. My husband assures me it's one of the best books he's ever read, you just have to push through. I also am going to have to push through weird almost fettishy language about the blond hair blue eyed pale skin middle eastern people (???!??!??!!!) How good is a book if you have to ignore and forgive 70% of what is written?
