A wonderful window into the beauty of melancholy in a time of self-crisis. The first time I read this book I hadn't thought about it twice if I'm honest. I wanted to, I really did, but I felt that I had no one to share my awe with. Until this year, I met a Moonshine. And now, the only copy I have annotated and loved well has been passed onto him. The only one I knew who would see the beauty as I did.

Growing up is incredibly scary if thought about too hard. But its easy, if you never forget. Growing up is not the problem after all, it's forgetting.
