Further Comments...
The Genre this story is in is a style called Magical Realism. Where fictional exotic events are told in a realistic way.

This book a lot of things you will see in fiction such as premonitions, curses and magic but it is told in such a realistic way that it is easy to forget you are not reading a biography about this family.

It is a really great book and beautifully written
