For the first time in years, I created a reading challenge list for myself which included reading at least five books in the Pulitzer, Booker and Orange Prize winners categories. I started with this one and was appalled. It's hard to believe, IMO, that this book won the Booker Prize. Reviewers have consistently called this book brilliant. I call it boring, and the writing left much to be desired. I will not be looking to read any more of this author's efforts.
