Happiness by Aminatta Forna

4.0

This was the perfect quarantine book. Lovely, luxuriant, leisurely prose; gently evocative threads of stories tying human and animal lives. Some of the parallels between these lives are drawn better than others, and some of the flashback mini-chapters are jarring in their time shifts. But on the whole, this is a book to take your time with, to sink into for a while. Sometimes, that's what you need most from a book.
