Very sad and mournful. Didn’t really land with me. I thought the concept was intriguing but the storyline didn’t connect.

Glimpses of beautiful writing in a meandering story of one man's woe.
I lost momentum and interest when I was revealed that

his homelessness was chosen as a form of slow suicide

but I appreciated the commentary and history overall.
