A beautiful novel about the complexity of humans and how one person can be so different to so many. Beautifully written without the writing being too flowery. Highly recommend.

Never managed to read a book the whole way through where I don't like any of the characters (except Donald) and still keep coming back to it. Reinvigorated my love for folk music and made me home sick for places I've never been and comrades I don't currently have.
