Powerful exploration of grief and the "what could've been." I really liked the following:
- the direction of the light
- breast milk
- perpetual snow
- blizzard
- breath cloud
- your eyes
- shroud
- all whiteness

This is more like a meditation or a thematic collection of prose poetry. It was really beautiful and wonderfully written though

Kauniin runollinen kirja surusta. Kirjasta jäi eniten mieleen kirjan rauhallinen ja tunteellinen tunnelma. Tästä iso kiitos on varmasti myös lukijan ansiota.

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.
