Heel knap hoe er van alles gedacht en gezegd wordt door de personages, maar er tegelijkertijd net zoveel tussen de regels wordt gezegd. 
Maakt nieuwsgierig naar de voorganger en, ooit, een derde deel.

Very well written, interesting plot, but the characters were not very likable.

More later - these characters are baffling and entirely understandable.

Vanessa says "more than other books, [a:Colm Tóibín|1351903|Colm Tóibín|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1554663046p2/1351903.jpg] writes about the fallibility of *each* character."
