This book contains a beautiful story. It is full of old worldyness in the speech and the descriptions. The words spoken by Kranog in her language that is almost forgotten are fragile and beautiful.
The mission of bringing new life into the world, makes even the dirtiest and difficult situations poetry.
I find something indescribable in this book, the essence of it is very very special. And it is not found in the arc of the storyline necessarily, it ends, as it should, with no tinge of heartbreak. But it is in the details of the journey itself; relationships formed, friends who are strangers taken to heart, entrusting someone with your heritage and pulling them into your family, the heart pull towards home, and the determination to do the heroic thing, without thought of glory, and the wholesome Hatchery of old fashioned goodness.
No you cannot claim that this book does not have a heart, for it beats firmly in the pathways made of footprints in burning sand and mud.
