I've read this for an university exam, I despised it so much it made me sick a few times but I constantly think about it. Despite me disliking this book it was one of those I've printed on my mind.

Beautifully written, and I usually really enjoy magical realism, but I could not get myself to like this book. I thought that the characters were very flat, and the rape/pedophilia was not tastefully handled in my opinion.

I don’t quite know how to review this novel. It’s a sweeping tale that follows several characters across multiple generations. Each generation of individuals having to deal with the aftermath of the forefathers’ actions and inaction. I really enjoyed the is though I could have done without some aspects of story which I won’t mention here for fear of spoilers but would encourage folks to take a look at the content warnings.
