A review by katiekatinahat
Geography of the Heart by Fenton Johnson

4.0

To love is to give oneself to another, to entrust to someone else a power that all good sense would have us reserve to ourselves. So we give away some part of ourselves, to find that part returned to us tenfold, in ways we could never have predicted and cannot rationally understand. Loaves and fishes. Miracles happen.

This book made me cry. The writing was very lovely and it was a really interesting perspective on love, grief, and memory.
