The most disastrously beautiful book I've ever read. 
Tackling major issues and confronting the reader with heartbreaking and painful trauma as the book follows decades of adulthood for four male friends in New York.  This book made me sob until I couldn't breathe and I would let it do it to me again.

just too long. the repetitiveness got a bit much, nothing ever changed or got better. i understand it’s meant to be realistic so. the writing was great.
