I think you probably summarized that book beautifully, even though from the summary I doubt I'd want to read it. But trust me, that is useful as there are so very many books out there to read, and so little time in one short lifetime.

Do keep it up. Do not take my comment as a negative, because it is not. None of us like to waste very much time on a book we're not going to like, and one of the things I dislike most about paperbacks, is that often rather than giving any sort of synopsis, the back cover and inside first few pages are filled with blurbs from people about how wonderful this book is and how much they liked it. Hello? What the hell is the book actually about so I can decide if I actually want to buy it?

You've told me what that book is actually about, including why you liked it, which is greatly appreciated.
