4.5

A very calm, stream of consciousness narration with absolutely no periods in any of the sentences, not even the end of the book. I would recommend dedicating an hour to reading this in one sitting, as I don’t think it hit me as hard when reading it in chunks at a time. I absolutely love the innovative structure of the story though— of the birth and life of a man. I think it was a risk the author took and managed to make it work. Would reread.
