An imaginative, inventive and interesting novel that was somewhat frustrating. Imaginative in putting together a historic event with present day significance, inventive in it's use of magical realism, and interesting in its views on women in the arts, and privileged and unprivileged students in academia; but on the whole the characters aggravated me by the end. Anita, Rachel, Jack, and Nick are all flawed in some way, and some were extremely unlikable. I'm glad I read this novel, but I was happy when it was over.
