I'm not going to go into a lot of detail. I enjoyed the book for what it was, but will sum up my opinion in a single word. Unremarkable. No great themes or wonderful thought provoking ideas. Just cliches. A love totally beyond reach and a mundane modern life which paled into insignificance beside the vivid past.
