Helpful Score: 1
This book had a haunting plot that made the reader want to keep turning pages. However the characters were week. Iris is suppose to be one of the main characters, but she escapes my memory as part of the scenery. Her relationship with her married boyfriend and step-brother seem that it should relate to Esme's story, but aren't explain well enough and they end up being unnecessary attempts at subplots. Elder Kitty's character was an exception. I like how O'Farrell wrote Kitty's disconnected narrative to demonstrate her being Alzheimer's disease.
