I've seen this book everywhere, and although I've made an effort not to buy fiction that I typically don't re-read, I bought this one earlier this fall. I couldn't get enough of it. I read it through in two days. Even when the plot seemed slow, I kept reading, eager to find out more of Lotto and Mathilde's story. I should have guessed (but didn't) that this book would be told in two parts-- the fates, then the furies-- ultimately telling the twisted, layered, complex, intricate story of a marriage. This takes the prize for best fiction I read this year, which is not an easy feat considering how many great books I read in 2015. Grab this one ASAP!
