Reviews and more on my blog: Entering the Enchanted Castle

Read this upon the recommendation of Deb from The Book Stop. It was an excellent choice! I've read a number of these "multiple-perspective" novels lately, the most recent being Salt Houses. In some ways I miss the continuity of staying with one character for longer, but it can also add something that we miss when limited to one point of view, honoring the difficult and multi-layered reality of human relationships. I need to reread Antigone now.
