I've plunged into this one without knowing anything about it and once I started I just couldn't put it down. It's a 2-hour read, epistolary, the neverending source of quotes type, an eulogy to good litterature (with many references to famous authors).
To quote the heroine, it felt like being hit by "the sirocco, the tramontane, the mistral and the pampero" at once.
My first book by this author and certainly not the last.
