I often find that books which are supposed to be deep cuts really aren't, this one was a refreshing exception on that front. I had no familiarity with the case of the Genain quadruplets before picking up this book and I feel like I've received far more than I could have hoped for.

The part about madness in America I wasn't entirely sold on however, while I found the argument timely and important (a lot of it is applicable outside of America) it also felt almost tacked on as an afterthought more than something that was an integral part of the book.
