It's a beautiful book with a special style. It's written from a mental ill persons point of view and creative designed like notes he's writing intentionally to tell his story. Sometimes it's a little confusing, because he suddenly changes the subject or stops to write. And sometimes the presented situations change between longer time ago and just yesterday or today. But that makes it very unique and presents the main character even better. I really loved this book, as a whole.
