Query: Starts strong and quickly dissipates so... don't bother.

I used to love the Booker prize short list - used to try to read them all before the prize was annouced but lately......?This book opens with some beautiful, lush writing that draws you in then it gets too clever with its structure and flash backs, etc, to bother to sustain the writing quality. So you shouldn't bother to start it.
