The Emperor of Gladness by Ocean Vuong

dark emotional reflective sad slow-paced

5.0

Somehow as tiring to read as life is long. How can you rate life, even if you don't like it? Even if it's poetry? 
There was something in those last few lines, though. I don't know what it was. We're together, aren't we? People. We help each other.

Unfortunately a very relatable story. And if my home was America, this would feel like home.
