literarilyryn 's review for:
Things in Nature Merely Grow
by Yiyun Li
emotional
reflective
fast-paced
Thank you to FSG for the early review copy via NetGalley!
This was heartbreaking and beautiful. To lose two children in such a way is something that no parent should ever experience, and I appreciate that Li writes in a very logical manner. She does so in homage to her second son, just as she once wrote a novel in homage to her first son.
My only critique is that she does tend to repeat thoughts/musings on certain topics. But otherwise, this is a great memoir!
