The writing is superb - she throws in these paragraphs that contain 800pg sagas without ever losing the pace of the main story.
Language comes into play in the tension between Italian and Sard (wish I had the Italian to read the original), and the broader gulf between island life and "the continent". The glossary made me hungry.
