I enjoyed this enough that I read another book by the author, but found it bloated for what it was. The parallelism of the different story elements grew predictable after awhile in a way that a shorter novel could have avoided. The protagonist's twin brother remains a mystery, but a strangely unremarked one given the ruminative character of this novel.
