A very intense book, disturbing and very sad. A lot of parts were difficult to read and difficult to imagine. I often read longer books rather than short books, but sometimes it’s the shortest books that really carry the most weight. I will be thinking about this book - meanings, visuals, heartbreak - for a long time. I am very eager to read more by this author.
