Pretty interesting - I thought this was going to be a difficult read, but the author does a good job of incorporating foreign words into the story so you can figure out what they are on your own (if you're like me and did not realize there was a glossary at the back of the book!) Interesting to know that, although this is a work of fiction, the characters in this book actually did exist. Even if you are not familiar with the culture and history, I think this will still be an enjoyable read.
