The single most profound and most harrowing story I have read all year so far. I just finished it, I read the whole thing in a day, and I feel genuinely, physically shaken by it. A really compelling meditation on the concept of revenge, especially in the context of the worst possible crime and worst possible criminal. Every aspect of this novel explores human nature in a breathtakingly brave way and I am left with so much to think about.
