Very good start but it doesn't keep its promise. Of course it is very well written. Simon Mawer is a past master at language and is very, very careful in choosing exactly the right word to express feelings. The trouble is that after a while you get the feeling the author is showing off his talent to you. And he'll keep taking you back to that glass room until at the end of the book you can't stand it anymore... The glass room - the center piece of a smashingly modern villa built in the 1920s for a rich Jewish auto-maker and his gentile wife - is the crucible through which the whole story of this family winds and unwinds. There is unfortunately too much unwinding and the plot never "grabs" you. After a while, you don't really care what happens to the people. You get slices of life and just as you get interested and finally "enter" the book, the author drops you and starts on another slice of life. This picking up of the reader and then dropping him off seems to be a rather common habit of authors who like to think of themselves as authors of "literary fiction". I have a rather strong feeling on this point (ant that's the reason why I rated it only 3 stars in spite of the excellent writing): it seems to me that literary authors could borrow a little from genre authors in terms of structure and plot that ensure that a book is a page turner. Why on earth can't literary books be page turners too?
