What a journey it is to read this book. It starts out obscurely, in the rain. It builds through a series of quiet encounters that leave you curious and expectant. Before you know it you find yourself immersed in a world and then like an Escher print you end up back where you started, not quite sure how you got there. I highly recommend this piece of rainy noir, this mystery that unfolds and resets with mathematical closure - it's a book that many have tried to write, I think and Berry gets it just right.
