So many poop chapters/paragraphs/sentences. My kids would love this, but the themes are quite a bit deeper and slower than what they'd reach for.

Beautiful, heartbreaking, convicting. A force of a book.

There are not sufficient words to describe the beauty of this work. It's not a book: it's sensory intake and real experience and intense emotions, concentrated and painted onto a page. This was incredible, I can't recommend this autobiographical novel enough.
