Summary

Following years of unrequited love, an out-of-work schoolteacher decides to take matters into his own hands to win back his ex-girlfriend, triggering a chain of events that neither he nor his psychiatrist could have anticipated. Told in seven parts, through the viewpoints of seven different characters, Seven Types of Ambiguity is an engrossing psychological thriller and a literary masterpiece.

Not sure what I was expecting

I suppose I was expecting a sliding doors kind of narrative but I felt I was left hanging in narration was good I just don’t think this book was for me , not to say others may find it great just my opinion , I will say tho the actual writing was lovely and quite soothing given the context

interwoven masterpiece

If you're a David Mitchell fan - you'll love this. The character narratives are beautifully interwoven within this novel as well as Elliot's other works.
Well written. Well performed. I loved it!
