I’m really confused about why I disliked this book so much because it seems like just the kind of book I’d like. I think ultimately it’s beautifully-written without any real depth. There are too many characters, too much imagery, too much symbolism - this is hard for me to say as an English teacher who loves all of those things! It’s just too many threads and none deeply woven.
