Goodness. I have thoughts, but how to express them. Through interpretive dance, or perhaps by writing my own novel, one of a descent into madness motivated by love, love lost long ago and stolen back more recently, a love whose terrible indecency makes it hard to call love...

I've started this book a couple different times, always putting it down at some juncture. I just read the "Forward" and am absolutely bedeviled by the language Mr. Nabokov uses. I know I will love the book when I finally finish this time.

Alas... they all get theirs in the end, right?

I am of the belief that Ruiz Zafron is an amazing author. This story is a bridge, though. An amuse bouche. It tells us some history we didn't know, completes a circle that I presume we'll need for the final story in the cycle of the Cemetery of Forgotten Books.
