I will admit that I did not get all the way through this book. I was simply too bored. So take my opinion with the knowledge that this review was written after I read only about a third of the book, if that. What I did enjoy from this author was his description of setting. He was able to capture a very vivid and interesting world in his writing. The problem I found was that Unsworth was recreating the complex world and he chose from the most boring protagonist possible, a rich white heterosexual male and I was bored and no invested in the story.
