Really enjoyed this book, can see why it won the novel prize for literature. Took me a very long time to get through it and found it challenging at points, definitely helped to refer back to the family tree and found that as you go through the book, the names become easier. Have never read anything in this style before, found it a really interesting read, some beautiful lines.
