Enchanting and original, deeply moving. Huston's writing is as beautiful as music. Her ideas are profound without being esoteric. She is the best kind of philosopher -- a philosopher of human character. An expert on love. It is rare to find a literary page-turner (I couldn't put it down!), wrapped in a murder mystery. Unbelievable that she could pull it off. Elegant, I forgot to say elegant. It is also that.
