A magical story which unfolds its imagination, as a tree which walks and a gateway to heaven, at every fold the story rates a new turn.

Extraordinary

Lovely story about growing up, identity, family, life and death, duty and kindness. The atmosphere of the book could remind you of a story for children but the themes were more for older adolescents and adults in my opinion. I found the ending too optimistic. Great book and amazing narration.

It will be a classic

Great story but it gives me butterflies and no different voices for different people. You will probably get butterflies but it will be worth it.

Intense Atmosphere

Seems like a good story, but I can't get on with the monotonous, dispassionate reader with her interminable pauses. Please, for the love of literature, put some feeling into it.

Ruined by lacklustre reading
