I own this book and have been meaning to read it for the longest time. It has finally found its way onto my most immediate TBR books.
I agree with you on the people writing summaries. I just read a book whose half a content was spoiled for me precisely because somebody pretty much revealed it all at the back of the book :(

I like when authors experiment with structure. Have you read CLOUD ATLAS by David Mitchell?

I love books with a presumed dead/reinvent yourself story...I'll have to keep my eye out for this one.

And are you working on your blog? Because your header and nav bar seem to have disappeared.

I'm so glad to see you loved this. I heard about it on NPR, but I'm sometimes skeptical of professional reviewers. Now, I'm anxious to read it.

I have another book by Chaon on my shelves, but have been reading a ton of goreat reviews for this book, so I am thinking about grabbing my copy soon. I am glad that the multiple narrative strategy worked well for you and that you enjoyed the book so much! I also agree that some of the writers that do book jackets these days are brilliant! I would guess they would have to be though, to get their offerings to stand out from the rest while browsing! I am sometimes in awe of how perfectly they can render a synopsis in only a few brief sentences. Great review!

Great review, Joanne. I also love books with multiple narratives. I love seeing different perspectives in the same story and this sounds like a really interesting book.

I'm a sucker for books with different interlocking narratives, and I've had this book on my TBR list for quite some time. I'm trying to hold out for the paperback, though, which is when I'll probably have time to read it anyway. Glad you liked it! I've heard nothing but good things.
