An interesting read. Quite dense prose but quite fun to read.

Challenging read and wasn’t in the best frame of mind.

Lots of interesting ideas but lacked an interesting central story to tie them all together. I was invested in the fall of the village but things didn't really get resolved one way or the other, the book simply ended

The themes were so integrately written into the plot and every detail that it made the book a little difficult to read at times. This is not a light read, despite that, the writing is so beautiful and the plot so well thought-out that I was never bored while reading this. If you like plot-driven stories, I don't think you'll like this. It's very much a character driven story.
