I feel like I should re read the book to fully understand it. The narrative style is confusing - are things happening or is the character just remembering or are there a lot of metaphors? Also, it was quite cluttered (as most of Virigia's books are, just not Mrs Dalloway which made me hope this book wouldn't be).
Loved the concept anyway, and it was painfully beautiful and sad.
