I couldn't find the right words to describe this fabulous book so I'm pinching these ones AS Byatt wrote for The Guardian...
“It is not really possible to describe, in a short space, the originality and depth of this long and beautifully crafted book ... It isn't easy to read because the reader is always in danger of missing something significant. It has an extraordinary ending. It persists in the mind long after the last page."
It has also just won the 2013 Miles Franklin Award.
