Well read as usual by Mr. Kilmer. Story line is intriguing and the question of love vs. society's norms vs. money, power and prestige is faithfully examined. Very enjoyable read.
Interesting and Thought provoking

Did this guy really say Penelope instead of panoply? Also, learn how to say reticent, not ‘recitant’. There are free dictionaries with pronunciation guides and even audio. I assume that Richard Kilmer is proud of his reading or desirous of improving because he reads so many of these books and it must take a lot of time. Please read reviews and make the effort to learn to pronounce these words that you seem to be unaware you are getting wrong. Richard’s voice quality is so great but the repeating mispronunciations are frustrating. Book is ok. I prefer a good story to this analyzation of social issues and demoralization.
