Returned the book. This was a 37 hour audio book. I listened, rewound, listened, rewound for a good week. Sorry, but it simply was not for me. It was one of those books with various life choices- in this case 4 different lives that the main character lives. The first time I rewound it, thinking, but he just stepped in front of a cab and died...then finally simply gave it up. I couldn't keep the different lives straight and no longer cared to try.

The prose is lovely. The story- if I could winnow it down to one or 2 of them... worked- but 4... nope.
