First off, wow what a book. This happens to be the best book I've read all year.
This book is not one dimensional. It tells a story of many levels. There is the love of Marianne and the narrator, a severely burnt person,drug addiction, schizophrenia, reincarnation, God, and gargoyles.
I can't explain and I've been putting this post off for days trying to sum up why I like this book so much. It's well written of course and the subject matters aren't knew but putting them all together like the author did it worked well. I must say this book is very sad and it's gross in ways because you have to read about the narrator's extensive burns and the surgeries he endures. But the package as a whole is beautiful. I want to recommend this to everyone to read.
