Such a layered, subtle, bright, colourful, beautiful story, nothing short of (re)reading it wholly will do it justice. 

Smith explores the commonality, the common land, of discrepancies, folding in themes and stories and lives alike from literature, art, film, music: the expression of our realities as they meet with the stories we tell ourselves. She Demands your consciousness as your eyes skip from one word to the next, from time to another, from one person to another. 

"Look at the colour of it" the book demands. Look, listen; and begin your dialogue.
