Beaucoup aimé cette histoire, avec toutes ces voix de femmes qu'on entend jamais. Un peu trop romancé à mon goût mais ça m'a quand même plu.

Hace mucho no leía un libro tan sencillo que me causara tanta impresión. Leer que es la primera novela de esta autora realmente me sorprendió muchísimo más.

Is it me? I don't at all understand why this is a bestseller and why other people love it so much. It's maudlin, trite, and boring. The characters are stock cliches. It has the undertone that is common with stories about the psychiatric abuses of the past - that it's bad this is happening to the main characters, because they are not actually crazy! Which suggests it WOULD be ok if they were. I found the writing clunky, but possibly that was the translation.
