Black Swan Green by David Mitchell

5.0

This was stunning. Vivid, immediate, real, and intricate too with small short stories and character sketches that took my breath away here and there, they were so perfectly caught. And maybe because I was about the same age in the Eighties, so much of it resonated, from the parents' way of being in the world to the food to the music (nostalgia!). It's immersive and insightful at the same time. Amazing.
