Pretentious in parts, but magical when it works.
alexacosti's review against another edition

Didn't care for this as much as I hoped to. It's a little too quirky for me, and if it is an allegory, it went way over my head. For me, the actual compelling part of the narrative didn't start until 225 pages in. I'd have much rather read a whole book about The Mothers instead.
