| Seemingly simple (and written in correspondingly spare prose that made the story extremely accessible) but astonishingly complex and layered. An allegory about totalitarianism and decay of memory and society--and how we respond to that. I'm still not ...more | |

| Mesmerizing. Haunting. I loved the lush, lyrical language in the beginning stories, but I think it was the story of the twin sisters that pulled me all the way in. The house became real over time, and what I loved most was the variety of voices and g ...more | |

“But that was the way life worked. Every human being was the result of a million different factors mixing together -- one of a million sperm arriving at the egg at exactly a certain time; even a millisecond off, and another entirely different person would result. Good things and bad--every friendship and romance formed, every accident, every illness--resulted from the conspiracy of hundreds of little things, in and of themselves inconsequential.”
