WTF is the ending all about?? If I've grasped it correctly, it's the biggest farking retrospective copout and theft of your emotional investment in the story since the end of The Magus.
Which was written about the same time. Coincidence? Can't be.
"My name's not Arrietty, Nicholas. And I'm sorry I can't provide the customary flames."
Enlighten me someone.
