Customer Reviews

What is it about?

I've read this book three times. After the first two readings, I still had no clue what the book was even about. I mentioned this to my sister, and she found that rather mystifying. So I tried again, with not much more luck. I am giving this four stars because there must be something here, since I keep re-reading it. I've even got it on my Wish List to buy it and try it for a fourth time.

Mysterious

One of the oddest and most beautiful books I have ever read
