Oooof what a phenomenal book. Loved the use of language and the way the book deals with the tragedies of love and trauma and how that shapes our lives. The inner life of the 'host' is extremely fascinating for anyone interested in the human psyche. The cultural elements felt right and very much an integral part of the story. It's an epic tragedy in the vein of classic epic tragedies and I'm so so glad I picked up this book. 5 stars without a doubt.
