I have not read anything quite like this book before. I would highlight most of the book if possible for all of the amazing quotes and passages. The writing style is exquisite and delicious. There are so many underlying themes in this book. These include marriage, grief and family. The cover is beautifully designed by the illustrator and designer. I will be re reading this again very soon. I would highly recommend. The type of story telling in this book should be left to the reader at the time because the less you know about this book going in the better. I will be looking out for this author again to find more of his work. If you are a fan of nature then this book is a good one for you because there are many imagery examples.
