What a lovely little read. I devoured this by reading and listening in tandem, and loved both formats equally. 

This novel read like one long train of thought— many little meanderings strung together with an effortless smoothness. I’d be flowing through this story and suddenly realize that we’d arrived at a totally new topic while I’d never even noticed a transition. 

This was my first Sigrid Nunez novel and I will definitely be picking up more. I have a good feeling that I’ll end up reading them all!
