This book made me feel very sad and very warm simultaneously. Major notes of mama drama / genealogy / legacy / family. And birds, of course. Loved it.

apfelkistenbuch's review against another edition

exquisite writing and yet i feel it should have been shorter, i really struggled to finish this!

the issue may have been that the author is so skilled, but the story wasn't actually all that engaging - the beautiful language and observations made it impossible to NOT finish, even when i wasn't interested or enjoying it anymore ... a difficult one.
