If someone asked me to describe this book in one word, I’d use pretentious or perhaps tedious. I can’t imagine what all those reviewers were thinking when they gave such high praise to this book. There’s an inherent problem in writing a book where both the characters are supposedly extremely intelligent and/or learned. The writer must be even more so. I would argue that Ms. Barbery’s characters fall short of the mark she was setting. Further, they were frequently boring and annoying. I found the “big reveal” of Renée’s “secret” near the end not unexpected and certainly nothing that should have scarred her as it did. The ending itself was a literary trick that shouldn’t have been allowed by the publisher and absolutely never should have been praised by the critics and public alike. If I’d paid cash for this book instead of getting it from the library I’d feel cheated. I mourn the hours I spent on this book when I could have been reading something so much better.
