Well, I did finish it. It did keep me interested enough to do that. Again the names get to be confusing. I do like the idea that painters use symbolizm to relay more that what 1st meets the eye. I would not recommend to just the ordinary casual reader, I don't think it would hold their interest long enough nor is it well written enough to make you want to keep finding time to read. I really had to force myself to complete this one.
