Immersive and beautiful, heartbreaking and triumphant. I loved this book. In fact, I might just start over and read it again. I loved the Dickensian characters, the mysterious layers, the sad overtones. I’m never quite able to explain exactly what makes a book feel authentically human, but this book has it in spades.
