I couldn't recommend it enough, I just loved it. Some people get a little thrown by the present tense and the use of 'he' rather than 'Thomas' but you soon get in the swing of things :)
I know what you mean, and seeing as Barbara Kingsolver took 7 years to write the Lacuna, and Hilary Mantel took 5 years for Wolf Hall (after 20 years of thinking about it!) they obviously struggled with the same thing!
