I also thought some of the language and imagery was really lovely eg. <em>'autumn leaves dancing around like light in a crystal maze'</em> and really good characteriszation, eg. <em>'His tortured feet heaved his rackety legs along with a definite purpose'</em>, <em>'His face was a mass of spaghetti lines, each engraved with a memory of its own'</em>. etc."</b> --- <em>Muneeza Shamsie</em>.
