Full of very, very long sentences which are often very beautiful, but also very dense. As the title suggests, the stories are more concerned with describing characters and scenes, rather than playing out eventful plots. Many of the stories felt somewhat unresolved and ended rather abruptly. More of a slog than Fathers and Sons, because it is more poetic and slower paced.
