I had to stop about every 50 pages just to take in everything that had happened. And when I finished I couldn’t think about anything else than the book. Woah.

I found this book really interesting and thought provoking. It's really well written and the characterisation in the first few chapters is really strong. Here we are introduced to an ensemble cast of characters through a series of what appear to be loosely linked vignettes; you could almost mistake the opening chapters for a series of short stories. As the book progresses there is a slight shift in gear as it becomes more conceptual and the material previously laid out becomes the terrain across which these concepts are explored more fully. I don't want to say much because I don't want to drop any spoilers, but I'd happily recommend this book.
