Helpful Score: 1

A riveting, unusual story, told in two voices/time periods for most of the book. This was probably the first time in my life when I was happy each time the narrator changed -- I was that involved in BOTH stories being told. Usually one story outshines the other, but not in this case. The unusual aspects of the story I will leave readers to discover -- they may be due in part to the French sensibility of the author.

A good read overall: good (if overall predictable) plot, "real"-seeming characters, strong writing.
