I really appreciated that the audiobook had the sound of the ocean to convey changing sections. This was a pretty interesting read into the demise of an old man's psyche as he is lost out in sea with a boat and means to eat food, thus prolonging his inevitable death but obviously will die at the end. There isn't much else to add, I didn't particularly care for the two characters and hector was definitely such a little shit at the start, and I feel so bad when the ships kept passing them by.
Graphic: Animal death and Blood
Moderate: Death, Murder, Abandonment, and Injury/Injury detail

I enjoyed this book, the visuals and the journey we go on with these two characters. It's beautifully written.
