Too much animal gore and for why? Could've had so much more character development with all of the interesting people he comes across on his journey.

Reading this book felt like watching a movie in my head. Hernan Diaz is a masterful writer and an amazing storyteller. I loved Hakan. I loved the way that historical fiction blended with magical realism and we followed Hakan’s journey across the wide and wild west.
