There is a sadness, or a strange sense of melancholy, to Enright's writing that is difficult to describe - yet so poignant, somehow. Each of her sentences drives itself home, precise in a way very few things are. I very much admire this quality; even though I felt I knew what the story was like, or where it was going, it still managed to make me so emotional that I find myself having a hard time placing the book on its shelf.
