Holy Jesus. I'd had this on my shelf for two years, ever since I bought it for my Postcolonial lit class, only to have it dropped from the syllabus. I finally got around to reading it and Loved It. Her prose is stunning, exactly my favorite style of writing, and I love her sense of character. I didn't realize until after I read it that this was third in a “series”; I guess it is more like a prequel to her other books, which all use the same broad set of characters. It didn't matter at all that I read this one first, I still loved it.
