It's a nice book, but one I would have dipped in and out of, like a bed time book you read a couple pages of each night. I read this as a book club selection and finished it over two weeks. I don't think this made for the ideal reading experience as it was repetitive and I can't remember a single city that was described; all of them blended together similarly. The prose is beautiful but nothing happens.
