" I really love Haven Kimmel's work. Her two memoirs about growing up in small town Indiana are fantastic. Her novels are all intriguing and written by a clearly intellectual writer. My one complaint is that I don't always get them. That was especially true of this story, which portrayed the mental breakdown of its protagonist through a number of mythological archetypes that I am unfamiliar with. Normally I'd get irritated: "why should the reader have to do all this bloody work?!", but I also get the sense that Kimmel knows what she's doing, and if she wants to write a book that only those who have taken religion/psychology/mythology classes will get 100%, more power to her.
