This book is a beautifully written telling of complicated lives. It feels so real and immediate, and read like a poem.

The writing is poetic and emotional, much like Another Brooklyn. The many different perspectives and constant shifting of time and place made it a bit disorienting in a way (not always in a bad way), but because of the breadth it seemed too short to accomplish all that needed to be said
