This "sad"story is a masochistic pleasure of characters in torment. I just love it. But it is bringing out the dark side of my personality.

This is an amazing novel. It always engages me and leaves me pondering, just what a good story should do. So I'm sending it off to bookczuk's unofficial bookcrossing zone in Charleston with its cousin novel, THE GREAT GATSBY. F. Scott Fitzgerald must have read this before composing his almost equally great novel of love thwarted and lives destroyed.

A beautiful story which I read a while ago. This copy was received today in a box of books from cordelia-ann to help stock our library/book exchange/UBCZ. Thank you so much! This will go out on the shelf soon.
