Wow. I’ll be thinking of Lin, Prabaker, Jonny Cigar and more for the rest of my life.
This was a beautiful story of a man that was on the run from his crimes. Usually that wouldn’t excite me or make me want to read a novel - but Lin is a man who seemed to be constantly learning about the world, and his place in the world.
This was a HUGE undertaking. It’s a commitment that at times I didn’t know if I would complete, but I am glad that I did. I was lost for words through much of this book. This review won’t ever do it justice.
