I quit this book as unreadable for me. I think it's a translation, but even so, it was incomprehensible to me. Couldn't follow the timeline and didn't care about the characters (when I could figure out who was who). Worst of all, it didn't appear that things would improve. So many books, so little time, not going to waste it on something I couldn't get into.

First words
Write with a gilded pen, wrap the letter in a silken cloth, put it in a sandalwood box: will this make the words any richer?
