A gentle, reflective sf. The story rolls easily from the 1800s to present day to the near(ish) future. At first, there doesn't seem to be much of a plot, but I didn't mind. It was mostly peaceful, with little unnerving details starting to trickle in. Little bits of mystery start popping up. All is wrapped up in a satisfying, mellow way.
