Although, very important, the subject matter in this book was very heavy. The prose is absolutely stunning. I found myself repeatedly rereading just because of how beautiful the words were on the page. I wish there was more of a resolution at the end, and that impacted by score a bit. Overall, this book was beautiful, heartfelt, and well worth the read.
