It's hard to rate this when I find the subject matter so unappealing. Good writing (duh) and interesting pacing until the final section, which was inchoate.

Sorry, but I'm going to have to buck the trend and not go on and on about how wonderful this book was to read. I'm rating it on how much I liked it, although I understand that the author is very talented. Many comment on the wonderful lyrical prose - but it wasn't enough to get me past "good". I'm glad that it was very short.
