The beautiful writing stands in stark contrast to the heavy subject matter and the loneliness that this book describes. I listened to the audiobook and it was very well done. The person reading has the perfect accent for the story, really helps to ground you in the setting. A great book for those that like a book where not a lot happens but each happening carries so much meaning (hopefully that makes sense out of my own head).
