This is the third book I have read by the author. The first, The Housekeeper and the Professor, is a beautiful story with compelling characters. The second, Hotel Iris, was a bizarre and disturbing story with compelling characters. This book is a set of three novellas. I found it just bizarre and disturbing. I did not even find the characters compelling. So, I really did not enjoy it at all.
