The writing was good but found it kinda disappointing after hearing such good things.
"Cunning as a racoon, inscrutable as a rat"
"Silence is a painful pressure. A blister.
What else is a beginning but the end of something else? "
"Every living thing is the history and future of all dead things. Every dead thing is the future of all live things."

There are interesting and profound reflections fueled by some truly great writing in this novella. Maybe it was too short to have the deepest impact on me.
I feel like I never fully connected with the character and her story.

Sweetly tragic poetry. Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul - but it's grief and hunger and loss. Dreamy and absurdist and deeply feeling. I loved this so much. Every line.
"It is unbearable to look back from the future we did not know we had been traveling towards. That is not right. It is unbearable because we did know. It was plain as our own palm."
"I pretended everything would be okay because it seemed impossible to always be saying goodbye. To blueberries. To the ocean. To ravens. To pelicans and plovers. To the cormorants. To the sunlight on the living room wall at four o'clock. To the sound of you in the next room."
