A review by alirka
From a Low and Quiet Sea by Donal Ryan

4.0

I want to give this book five stars, but something holds me back. The story felt a little unbalanced, though maybe it was meant to be. I found myself wishing there was more of Farouk’s story, rather than him being more or less a bystander to the events that finish the story. All their stories, and the connections between the other characters, are so beautifully written though, that it’s worth it from start to finish.
