Mehso-so

A couple and their young son move to an isolated lake island in a time of political turmoil. I was slightly misled by the first positive review, the beautiful cover and the quality of the first few pages. While I did enjoy some of the poetic vagueness of the narration, there are just too many odd similes and metaphors at some point, as though the author was trying really hard to sound sophisticated.
