David is a perfect husband and a father, he is very intelligent, and experienced in life, he knows at least 8 languages, and has a passion for music, especially jazz and the old movies. The centre of the story is the Wolde family. The reader gets to see the perception of events by different characters that unveil the story bit by bit. So, what is so good about it? First of all, the story itself is so well written, its pace, and the development of events seem to be just right. It has been a while since I last had such a satisfaction in a story.
