The Hours by Michael Cunningham
4.0
emotional reflective sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

The structural concept of three women, different times, echoing each other, then entangling at the end. Magical!! The writing is so special also. A unique voice that feels so elevated, but not beyond comprehension. 

This is my second Cunningham novel and I remember liking “Day”. “The Hours” is even better, by quite a bit! I hope to Read “Home at the End of the World” in the near future since this book made me love the author even more.
