Yeah, the second Octavian Nothing book is basically one long exercise in "JESUS, GRANDPA, WHAT'D YOU READ ME THIS FOR?" Technically good, still very well done, and I like that it ends on a hopeful note, but oh my lord it stepped all over my bitty heart, again and again and again.
The Helen of Troy one looks really interesting, I shall add it to my "list of books I maybe should pick up" file!
