Review: Four Stars - good clean book.
Review: Inventive but overly cerebral - Not the most easy or satisfying of reads as the author plays on the idea of starting reading an opening chapter but each time the story within the book is changed. The reader then sets out on a mission to try to discover the original book and the plot becomes increasingly complex, convoluted and kafkaesque as it explores the complex relationships between books, the reader, the author and the world. It also looks at the boundary between what is reality and what is fiction. I'm sure this book must feature in the curriculum of Literature Studies but as a read, it felt very cerebral and the structure made it difficult to really engage with the characters or the thrust of the story.
