I liked part 1 and I liked part 2, but I'm not entirely sure I liked the parts where those two converged. Both women's stories were deeply concerned with death in very interesting ways that I enjoyed, however I don't think I understood what was going on when the women's lives smashed into each other. Still a very thought provoking work.
