Stunning.

The phases of experiencing this novel:
Phase one: devouring it.
Phase two: staring into the middle distance processing this novel.
Phase three: weeping over this novel, and also restarting heart and recapturing breath.
Phase four: reading it again, first in erratic segments and then straight through first word to last, at least once. 

I am in stage three. Read if you want your emotions played like a symphony composed by devils and performed by angels.
