I have a terrible admission. I found this book impossible to read. I should have been warned, metaphysical thrillers are not my thing but I loved Mitchell's The Thousand Autumns of Jacob de Zoet (bwl 57) and enjoyed Black Swan Green (bwl 41), however I struggled with the first section of this new novel, began to feel it might be working and then was completely thrown by the second section. All I wanted was a handy window. Has anyone else read it?
