This book absolutely broke me. I truely adore it, especially the language which is so consistently beautiful. Everything is perfect from the relaxing imagery and descriptions to the odd pace and heart wrenching scenes. Everything fits perfectly in this book. Beware it is not for the faint hearted - I will never recover.
