Made a travel copy of this book for my bookclub and I was pleasantly surprised! It caught me from the first chapter and did not let me go. 

The middle sags a bit but in the context of the last and first chapters, they gain fascinating meaning. Besides, the prose is so gorgeous that I did not mind. Very good read!
