Do not like this writing style. Tough to keep up on who thought are who’s. The jumping around in time , though not unusual but this one leaves me lost.

dark sad tense medium-paced

The writing wasn't grabbing me, and once I looked up reviews, I realized this wasn't a book I wanted to finish it.

This is a slow moving book where you don't get to know the characters too well.  The writing is beautiful and you feel as though you are in the room.  It gives you a look at male friendship and how a single event can shake and impact a very old relationship.  It examines marriage, parenthood and friendship.
