No doubt, one of the weirdest books I have ever read.
Also, no doubt, one of the best books I've ever read. It might seem fragmented and disjointed (and it is), but it hits straight to the heart. Deep and dark and heartbreaking.
Art, no doubt!

Valkoinen kirja, sen runollisuus ja liikuttuminen.
Pieni romaani kertoo sisaruudesta, jossa toisen olemassaolo vaatii toisen poissaoloa ja toisen olemassaolo olisi ollut este toisen elämälle. Kertojan sisarus on kuollut vain kahden tunnin ikäisenä ja nyt aikuinen kertoja näyttää hänelle kaiken valkoisen, puhtaan ja ehkä myös viattoman.
Kieli on kirjassa äärimmäisen kaunista ja kerronta lyyrista.

This was a beautiful, lyrical exploration of grief, mourning, and the way that colour as a symbol can help us make sense of the world. Of the handful of books centering on colour that I’ve read, I think The White Book does this best.
