It really is an extraordinary novel - the story has stayed with me for a long time. Highly recommended http://www.greenmetropolis.com/forum/posts.aspx?t=2568#36678 http://www.greenmetropolis.com/forum/posts.aspx?t=2568#36678 Tue, Sep 21 2010 13:16:06 GMT I too loved this book and have it for sale. I am on the 3 for 2 offer and try to sell most of my books at normal price or with a discount - I just want them to go to good homes!! http://www.greenmetropolis.com/forum/posts.aspx?t=2568#36705 http://www.greenmetropolis.com/forum/posts.aspx?t=2568#36705 Wed, Sep 22 2010 10:20:20 GMT I finished this book last week and, after taking a little while to get into it, was very glad that I read through to the end. It centres on a handful of characters in the epic setting of siberia c1920. It's full of surprises, as threads pull together and apart, and there are a couple of seriously violent themes (but you can skip a paragraph or a page if you need to, without losing the narrative). Definitely worth a read if you didn't catch it when it was first published 2005/6. http://www.greenmetropolis.com/forum/posts.aspx?t=2568#56291 http://www.greenmetropolis.com/forum/posts.aspx?t=2568#56291 Mon, Jul 23 2012 13:05:27 GMT Loved this book - not what I was expecting when i picked it up - and I like that in a book. http://www.greenmetropolis.com/forum/posts.aspx?t=2568#56296 http://www.greenmetropolis.com/forum/posts.aspx?t=2568#56296 Mon, Jul 23 2012 16:16:16 GMT James Meek has a new novel coming out very soon, may be worth looking out for http://www.greenmetropolis.com/forum/posts.aspx?t=2568#57649 http://www.greenmetropolis.com/forum/posts.aspx?t=2568#57649 Fri, Aug 24 2012 10:47:39 GMT
