what a letdown.
the writing is simply too crafty (or tinkering); and the story and the plot become apparent twenty pages into the book. the heavy handed treatment makes the characters cartoonish and superfacial, their amazing pains/struggles not touching but overbearing. took some effort to finish this short book.
i am surprised that it won the big prize.
