Reading this book having moved abroad really made it hit home, the emotions of isolation and feeling far away from loved ones are so visceral in this book. Such an interesting perspective on humanity, literally zooming out. I can see why it has won so many awards. As impactful as it was for me now, I'm not sure it will stay with me forever, so that's why it's not quite 5 stars from me.
