So far, my opinion on this book:
If you like the novels of Umberto Eco (who is referenced in the novel) - read it.
If you like Joyce, Winterson, Murakami, or any other novelist who uses experimental styles - read it.
If you know anything about WW2 history - read it.
I don't have a lot of luck getting people to read things I like which relate to Taiwan, continued in next comment...

....I think people don't want to read such books because they consider that I only like them because of my connections to the country (in this case there'd also be the fact of my trusty yellow Merida bike, its design not unlike the Lucky Midwife, that carried me round the island.)
Actually this is just a good book. You don't have to know Taiwan to like it. Read it.
