I loved this book! Very different form anything I’ve read before - a combination of strong characters, literary fiction, philosophical questions, social commentary, and a hint of sci-fi. I loved the style and subtle humour of Le Tellier’s writing. I do agree that the sub-plot surrounding Sophia felt unnecessary and gratuitous and could turn some people away who otherwise would enjoy the book. Not for everyone but I devoured it!
