Having just finished this book it is going to get 5 stars before the feeling begins to fade. Touched some deep places in the soul and was a real adventure building the story from the fragments presented from different times and places. Not poetry but with an almost-poetry feel. Somehow the Wasteland came to mind - "These fragments I have shored against my ruin" - and when I read it again I might try reading it out loud.

I'd write a review if I had a clue what this book was about. it is beautifully written, but so British it is almost like reading another language. the narrator, known as Lulu, Kim, Catherine, Mitten, etc. Tells the disjointed story of her dysfunctional family from her point of view as she grows.
