The yearning is so strong in this book. There are moments where Louis’ sorrow is so tangible it has a physicality. It drapes over the narrative of prose of the book like a curtain.
The entire time I felt like I was seeing through Louis’ eyes and was keenly aware of
“But Louis, this is the very spirit of your age. Don’t you see that? Everyone else feels as you feel. Your fall from grace and faith has been the fall of a century.”

I can't say I ever got a good grasp on any of the characters. the author's descriptions of characters isn't very tangible, and everything tends to center around the main character thinking about how sad and depressed he is.
Despite this, I enjoyed most of it, and will likely read the other books in the series.
