The Beautiful Things That Heaven Bears by Dinaw Mengestu

4.0

Since I read this in spurts over the course of my last year of thesis work, I can't write a full review. However, the writing was fantastic. Mengestu has a great voice and captured so many of the subtleties of life beautifully in his prose. I'm already excited to dive into his next novel, now that the thesis is written and I can devote more time to reading.
