One of the best books read this year. Two stories that slowly collide. Listened to the audio version - very well read by two different readers. Many thoughtful issues touched on.

I found the style - almost total dialogue, and the telling of two stories chapter by chapter to be asking too much of me as a reader. If you are only using dialogue then you have to work in so much info it can become stilted. In the end, I gave it away. I first read her book 'Things you Cannot Say' which was exceptional so maybe expected too much.
