You just know there's something heart-wrenching behind that kind of symbolisim! With the added intrigue of the plot and the mention of "achingly beautiful prose", I can't wait to read this one!

I would classify this book as pretty literary in that the characters really drive the plot. Petunia: Thanks - glad to hear you also liked this one! Molly: Given your literary/teaching background, I think you would really appreciate Mandel's prose...glad I tempted you to check it out! Rebecca: I completely agree – I hate cardboard characters.

But it looks really good. I have it on my TBR list. I liked that you mentioned her "ability to fully develop characters". There's nothing worse than a book filled with one-dimensional characters.
