I loved the narrative structure of this book. The episodic storytelling drew me into each character’s story, revealing just a bit more about the Stranger (the Tramp, the Stowaway, the Guest..) as the world expanded in detail. Every character captivated me. The love story at the heart of the whole shit show stole my heart. I was even morbidly attached to seeing our protagonist get more and more beat down by the world. Such a simple story with such a rich and varied cast, and a familiar but new world. I read this book so fast.
