I don’t really think I could possibly ever find the words to describe what I feel right now.
In Memoriam is sensational. Beautifully raw and gripping with the most talented prose and narration I’ve read in a while. It’s intimate, it’s genuine, it’s moving and it’s one of the best books I’ve ever read.
I don’t think I have it in me to write a full review now, but I might be able to later. It’s just an instant classic and I don’t have words.
