 Love – unrequited. Hope. Yearning. Solitude filled with melancholy during white nights and lonely days. 

It was all great, but mannerism somehow ruined it (a bit) for me. Also, as I reflect about the book after reading it, I think I would have appreciated it more in my late teens/early 20’s than I do now.
