Summary: More unusual fare
Comment: This book is not one you choose for an easy read. Linda Le writes incredible narratives that challenge the reader to piece together the story. The story she's telling is of a madman who has been locked in an asylum for ten years by his family for having had a love affair with his sister. If you have issues with this story line, read something else. Even if you're able to move beyond your moral qualms with the events of the story and let Le's words absorb you into her riveting novel, you must be prepared to have your assumptions of sanity and insanity challenged. This is not a comforting book about life. It's one that takes you to edges of humanity that we don't often visit and cloaks these events in literary maneuvers that will take your breath away if you let them.
I'd recommend this book for those who love strong, forceful writing and who are able to move outside of their own personalities and daily lives to let an unexpected story awake them to other possible interpretations of life.
