Outstanding. The novel was given to me from my boyfriend, and he did a fantastic job: I devoured it in two hours and couldn't put it down. You're brought into ask questions from the very first few pages, questions that Park doesn't answer until the very last sentence. He opens plotlines that leave you begging for more, and then circles back to them when you least expect them, and it's a sucker punch. The writing style is stream-of-consciousness done to absolute perfection. Explores rocky familial relationships in a way that will have your heart aching just to tell everyone you love them. Park should be proud.
