RARA-AVIS: The undependable narrator

Just finished this.

A little shy on the characters but a great story. Sharp and effective prose. I realized in this book how much I dislike the undependable narrator. The last one I read by him, Scorpion Reef, played that way, and the whole way through Sailcloth I was sceptical of the story. Suspension of disbelief is important, and I found it hard to give it that. Fiction is good, but fiction inside of fiction is more than I care for.
