I must admit that i did not like this book and i guess it just isn't my type of book. I almost put it down halfway through just because it didn't seem like it was really going anywhere. It has some very good parts, lyrical parts, poetic parts but I think I've already forgotten most of the story. At least it was a very short read, and perhaps one day i might go back to deciphering all the subtexts with this novella.
