The Beauty of Impossible Things was a melancholic and haunting novel, with some absolutely beautiful writing and a pervading sense of unease throughout.
Natasha is not like other children, her way of seeing the world is different and often disturbing. Over the course of one long and intimate summer, her inner self will affect the world around her in an enduring and life changing way.
I wouldn’t want to say much beyond that, this novel is one its best to approach with no preconceptions. Rachel Donohue has a poetic way with words and a strong sense of place and people that just sinks you into the world she creates here. It is a story that ultimately invades your unconscious mind and leaves you picking at the edges of it long after you are done.
The Beauty of Impossible Things is a literary delight, a short sharp snapshot of time, a time that affects all who live through it for the rest of their lives.
