Exquisit writing which makes you want to dive into every sentence this man puts on a piece of paper. I had to inhibit the initial impulse to devour Small Worlds immediately. So I stretched the reading experience like a good meal.
This book is masterfully crafted, with lots of love and feeling. In my opinion it shouldn't be compared to Open Water, but if you still want to - it is by no means less important. The main topics considered in this book are love concerning romantic partners, friends and family, identity, music and immigration. It's unbelievable how much one can say in a few pages.
Hands down: Caleb Azumah Nelson is my favourite modern day author.
Highly recommend.
