Definitely a letdown after Station Eleven but still fairly interesting. The similarities are all there: a quiet book without a strong plot, flashbacks, different POVs, atmospheric, ... Ultimately, it just didn't do much for me. It essentially felt like Bernie Madoff's biography turned up to 11 in the Mandel way.

Started strong but then it just kind of mellowed out.
