This is a relatively slim novel, but stunningly complex. The earlier chapters sort of reassemble themselves and change as you read later ones. The prose is remarkably clear and readable, even if it--at least at the start--has a distinctly archaic tang to it. A really strange fantasy novel, adjacent to the real world. Interesting thematic concerns including the natures of reality and identity. Borrowed this from a friend, who I hope will be able to muster the energy to read through it (I ... lost where the bookmark was, sorry ...)
