Enon by Paul Harding
4.0
Once again I have gone back and changed my review stars. I initially gave Enon 3 stars, but have found myself thinking about this story off and on since I finished the book.
In Enon grief is so powerful that it is almost it's own character as we watch grief encompass the life of a father as he slides into the pit of despair over the death of his daughter. What I have been thinking about off and on is that we never know the battles that people are fighting. The guy on the street that we shrug off as a derelict and scurry by - what is his story? what is his heartache that brought him to this point?
Any book that makes me think that we should be kinder to each other and not judge each other so harshly is worth another look.
