This one had a slow start for me. I struggled to get into it for a bit - this was actually a DNF for me earlier this year that I gave another go. But the second act was gripping. And the voice!! A really sophisticated, earthy, grounded narration with sprigs of magical realism. Really enjoyed this one once I was in the right mindset for it.
