I'm sorry, but I couldn't wait for it to end. The Hamlet parallels are as subtle as a sledgehammer (Claude/Claudius, the Vet/Polonius, okay, but the dogs as players re-enacting the murder, and Almondine as Ophelia?). The plot is far-fetched (no pun intended), sinister and creepy. The poison(used twice, in the same way, same place, on father and son), the ether, the dog-fights--these are awful people. I wanted to get away from all of them. And what about Edgar's mother--what a horrible ending. Are we supposed to feel happy that Edgar is finally with the ones he loves? I wanted to like this book--it's obviously touched a lot of people. I shared that feeling briefly in reading the chapter that describes Almondine's grief after Gar's death--it's beautiful. But otherwise, I just tried to plod through, but found it all so depressing. And if I hear the word "mow" one more time, I'm going to scream.
