this book has me hooked within the first few lines. I underlined so much because David drop's writing is so beautiful and I read this in its entirety in one sitting. I will continue to think about this book for a very long time, and I believe this should be considered a modern classic in the future. I highly recommend everyone reads this.

God’s truth... this book was alright. A slow march to madness when you lose the ones you love. 

Det er all grunn til å lese denne boken og til å tro på alt skrytet denne internasjonale booker-prisvinneren har fått. Poetisk krigslitteratur suggererende brutalt ble nesten for mye, men så skjer det noe rundt side 70 som du bare må lese.

Didn’t love it at first but it progressively got better. I really enjoyed the ending and it makes me feel as if I should reread the book. Definitely not for everyone, but enjoyable.
