This book is about love, is about homes and what they hold after the people that built them are no longer the same or are gone, is about tension, is about things left unsaid, is about parents and how they shape us, about fear of ourselves and everyone else, and about embracing the ugly, greasy, and the foul. This is not a pretty book, but I do think it's one worth reading.
