3.5
“the thing is that the metaphors in this book are not very subtle but they are resonant nonetheless”
“A very rich book that I was not frequently tempted to quote but will give the credit of giving me a newfound appreciation for local folklore.”
“I am not sure why I found this story so charming. Maybe it was the vivid descriptions of the Central Asian steppe. Maybe it was the way the author expressed the depth of feelings of the characters. It was humorous, it was heartwarming, it was heartbreaking. It left me with such a longing for the story to never end. Brilliant.”
