A contemporary piece of fiction - including topical storylines such as the migration of people across the Med - mixed in with more traditional literary devices like the repetition/use of italics for certain words, phrases and sentences to emphasise a particular point. Not 100 per cent sure about the constant switching of narratives between Petra and Yiannis - although to be fair these are clearly signposted by the author - but the brief yet effective opening chapter and characterisation within it encouraged me to read on for a bit longer.
