I bought this in the charity shop on Jamaica Road for 50p a couple of weeks ago. I still haven't read any of her books. I'm sure I'll enjoy this one.

I finished this about 5 days ago whilst in Extremadura, Spain. I found it much harder than I expected. So many changes of the protagonist, so far away from my own culture that it sometimes felt like I was reading a different language! Very rich and intense, but I was left with lots of unanswered questions. It is certainly insightful with regard to a certain point in history. I hope I will read other books by her to get more of an overall feel of what she writes.

I left this in the entrance.
