And it is one that stays with you - I finished it a couple of days ago and have spent that time working out the various strands and thinking through the issues it raises about religion, philosophy and physics, as well as the characters and plot lines. It is a complex book and one I know my mother, for example, wouldn't finish. But readers should stick with it - it is a remarkable read, very clever, quite unique and wonderfully creative.
