poormansmynah's review against another edition
"I didn’t know what hate felt like, not the hate that comes after love. It’s huge and desperate and it longs to be proved wrong. And every day it’s proved right it grows a little more monstrous. If the love is passion, the hate will be obsession. A need to see the once-loved weak and cowed and beneath pity. Disgust is close and dignity is far away. The hate is not only for the once loved, it’s for yourself too; how could you have ever loved this?"

When thinking back on this book, I am not quite sure why I liked it so much I did. I think that the historical context of Napoleonic wars, multiple points of view coming together paired with some magical realism and a bittersweet ending had an effect on me that I wont forget for a while.
