I had to give this charming little book a 4 star, because even though I have absolutely no idea what it meant or what happened (even after reading countless reviews) I’m just still delighted this book exists. Not even being a poetry buff, I found the idea of a mystery in prose to be so entertaining, and it’s even more than a stereotypical mystery story - I get the feeling you’re not supposed to know what to think. A mystery novel that never solves the mystery… unless I’m just stupid. Perhaps a re-read or 6 will change something, but I enjoyed myself nonetheless!
