A “read in a day, but think about it for the next year” type of book. It was an extremely powerful and expressive look into a street, its inhabitants, and how lives converge and diverge. It made me laugh, it made me cry, it made my heart break and then come back together again.

I think it would be a good book to gift because I can’t think of anyone who wouldn’t like it.
