Unabridged Audiobook
I really like his books. I find you have to concentrate because he jumps all over the place and nothing comes together until the very end. Now that I know that I will listen to his other books that in mind. During the reading, it’s frustrating, and I kept having to go back and listen, in case I missed something but he does tie it all together in a very neat bundle towards the end. I thought the narrator was outstanding.
Good job to the narrator but really badly written book. There’s a fine line between paranoia and deception in the story. I feel like I read about the main character being paranoid more than anything. The author also didn’t capture the essence of life as an expat. It was generally all over the place and the final reveal wasn’t that exciting.
This book was very difficult to listen to because of the many time shifts in the novel. In addition, the author goes on endlessly describing mundane things that do not advance the plot or help you understand the character. How this book ever won a prestigious award is the real mystery.
Diarrhea of the mouth, not interesting in the least.
