I did not care about this book even a little.
I think it was supposed to be this weird and beautiful book about grief?
It was so boring.

…I felt something change, in me or the world. Such is the power of imaginary made-up borders. For the first time in my life, I began to imagine the possibility of forgiveness. I began to think that maybe I, Margaret Murphy, might be forgiven one day….maybe by me. By me….Maybe I was finally beginning to figure out how to untie the impossible knot of a problem that had tied me up, for all the years of my life….When I finally did find a way to untie that impossible knot, then all the most important questions in life would be answered. Why we love. Why we suffer. How we make sense of the happenings in our lives. The stories we tell ourselves to make it through to the next day. Why we press on, even after all hope is lost.
