I received this book from the Member Giveaways on Library Thing. I need to preface this review with an important fact: I have a chronic pain illness, that puts my brain into an almost constant "fog".  That being said, my review may reflect the fact that my illness is affecting it.  I believe that this author is a very good writer; however, I was confused during this whole book because of the alternating story lines.  I understand what he is trying to do, which is writing as if the characters are in a "parallel universe". I like the premise of the book, and I like the author's writing style. I had a hard time keeping up with what was going on, however. I also read the prequel to this book, "Tales from a Tiny Thai Table", which the author included as a link at the beginning of the book.  The prequel did make it a little bit easier to understand what was going on.  All in all, it was an okay book. I would like to read more of this author's books, as I did like his writing style.
