The memory tree by Tess Evans

Like many other fellow reviewers this 2nd novel by Tess Evans I felt that it had a lot to live up to.  And also like other reviewers I was a bit disappointed as I absolutely loved The Book of Lost Threads as per my previous post.  The storytelling was unusually done and won't give this away if you intend to read it.  I couldn't really relate to the characters, however there was an interesting array of people dealing with either mental illness, loss or anger.  There is also the religious fervour of one of its characters which leads to the story's most tragic event.
An interesting read, look forward to the next Tess Evans novel!
