The prose was beautifully done, the story just wasn’t for me
I sort of want to throw up.
Heartbreaking and filled with despair this is a story about love and it’s journey to complete chaos and suffering through a grieving, long given-up man’s eyes. I can only compare it to White Nights as I see many similar facts to the way our narrator comes to be and how he comes to find love. I for sure thought this would be a quick and easy read but found it to require thinking and breaks, though I thoroughly recommend it.
“She was suffering because she longed for something she could not find.”
“Despite the intimacy between us, you are still so far away, another person in another body”
“In attempting to possess something that was never there we lost something we already had”
“Now I see that we have ended up at the same place but on different roads: we are both looking for someone, someone we can call our own … How wonderful it would be if we could find that in each other”
