I initially started reading this under the impression there would be actual, not just metaphorical zombies.
That said once I adjusted my expectations and approached it as a st ry about grief and loss and love I appreciated it considerably more. The emotions are raw and the poetry is very evocative. I expect it would have resonated with me much more strongly had I read it when I was a teenage girl going through my own angst and losses.
