This book is definitely not the big behemoth that many people put it up to be. But I can't argue against the fact that it is such a pure and raw showcase of emotions and character that I have ever read in a book. They use literally next to nothing in terms setting or plot devices etc. But its just a bare bones story. And I think it's just one of those books where I have no notes.

This little novella says a lot about compassion and it's beautiful.

This ruined my day. Classic books can teach you something about humanity and a time period without being depressing. Prepare tissues.

Read this for English pretty indifferent to it, but I was interested enough to where I actually read it cover to cover which I’ve only done with few books I’ve read for English

"As happens sometimes, a moment settled and hovered and remained for much more than a moment. And sound stopped and movement stopped for much, much more than a moment."
