Writing convincingly and with nuance about mental illlness, and writing about family without maudlinism or sentimentality, and writing from numerous points of view without making the reader dizzy and confused - all these are difficult, and yet Haslett does them all brilliantly in this novel. The characters are incisive and compelling and the prose is fluid and exquisite. You'll find it hard to put down, and hard to stop thinking about after you do.
