It was really interesting for the first part, his childhood. As he grew into a man his views of women as either fuckable or not got tiresome. There’s a lot of interesting information on religions and how each interacted with each other culturally and medically but the main character just became so annoying. I think him describing the wife of a colleague as ‘so and so, with a low ass’ was the last straw. It basically sounded like the author’s voice instead of the characters when it came to women and I had just rolled my eyes one too many times.

Velkolepý historický román zavede čtenáře na krásná exotická místa a poodhalí roušku neznýmých kultur. Vypráví však příběh tak nereálný a představuji hlavního hrdinu tak dokonalého, že pokud čtenáře nezaslepí pozlátka vzdálených zemí, musí nutně zanechat hořkou pachuť v ústech.
