A beautiful and enraging portrayal of the damage hate causes. For me, Patrick was the most beautiful character in this book, deemed an afraid artist, it was Patrick who lived his life most authentically in-spite of the possible and eventual consequences.
Had the start of the book been easier to get into, and had there been more chapters by Patrick it would have been far closer to a 5 star read. Having said that I would recommend this book to almost anyone.
