5.0

A devastating, poignant read. The theme of minor details is repeated throughout the story to masterful effect. It is easier to read the cold fact that someone died than it is to be told what could be heard, smelled, and seen when someone was killed. The minor details are what puts us in those in those moments of tragedy and atrocity more effectively than anything else could.
