I am writing this with tears streaming down my face. This is the most beautiful horrible story ever. I am an emotional reader but I do not get emotional when I read. This work of art has me wrecked. It is complicated and complex but it is absolutely brilliant. The details are not overwhelming but perfectly chosen. The expressions and descriptions are timeless. It makes me sad that I can only read this for the first time once and that I can only give it five stars.
Graphic: Death, Infertility, Miscarriage, and Death of parent
There is a mid section that involves miscarriages. Please be aware that is it extremely descriptive and while it is a big plot point you may be able to have someone filter the words for you.
