Summary

Best for readers who...
Good fit if you want...
- You enjoy giving an unfamiliar, substantial book time to reveal its subject.
- You often choose long-form general-interest reading over short, easily categorized books.
- If you appreciate intimate first-person, the author plays with form to mirror the book’s themes, breaking up expectations in rewarding ways.
- You need to know a book’s subject or genre in detail before committing.
- You’re looking for a brisk read rather than 608 pages.
- If you do not enjoy long family sagas, the narrator’s credibility is intentionally shaky throughout the book.
