booknerdxo88's review against another edition

I was listening to the audiobook, and I found myself lost and confused. I also found the throat singing to be a little off putting. I wasn’t expecting it while listening to this book.

I don't really know how to rate this, since I have the feeling that I didn't even understand half of the book. The prose was certainly interesting and beautiful. I am a bit sad that I couldn't get the audiobook. Maybe I would have enjoyed it more.
