I read this book for my college reading class and although it was interesting in some parts it was very much confusing. I wanted to love the book but it was exhausting and really hard to keep track of the characters because of the men having the same name constantly. 
Some parts were political and I’m not really into that so I just zoned out which sucks because it’s an important plot. There’s some weird incest stuff involved. The book is just crazy to say the least.
