I would have given this less Stars if it weren't for the beautiful writing. But, like the characters in the book who are excellent artists with little depth, the writing is aesthetically dense and pleasing but disappointing in its surface level treatment of a thin if barely there plot. Plus, it was very hard to follow along as they weren't very distinct. They all got muddled by the end.
