This is a very well written book, but it is dated. It relies on heavy gender stereotypes. The descriptions are incredible, but he goes on diatribes about various topics only loosely related to the plot. This is beneficial to some point that he gives sufficient context for a book that engages with history and politics, but too much time is spent on it. The plot is emotionally moving.
