Query: Think about it before beginning

Lured by the settting--promises of a novel about Victorian England and a saucy theme--a prostitiute's life, I tried not to let the autor's annoying first person intrussions at the beginning of the book dissuade me as his writing and descriptions are very good. The book's plot draws you in. But halfway through, it lost me, although I still wanted to know what happened to the main character, so skipping some pages, I continued. After reading 894 pages, a reader deserves to know what happens, yet Mr. Faber doesn't know how to end this book and leaves the ending inconclusive. I would have thrown the weighty volume at his head had he been near!
