What an exquisite gem of a book. Throw the “writer rules” out the window - in the hands of a master like Cunningham it doesn't matter if you head-hop, if your pace is slow and wandering, if your characters are not always totally relatable or sympathetic because you're caught in the writer's spell - willing to go where he takes you, knowing you'll be richer for it when you come out the other side. I loved the family, the willingness to incorporate the pandemic into the narrative, the different age groups and family dynamics. I was sad to leave this world when the book was done.

My thanks to the publisher and to NetGalley for an advanced reader copy of the book for review.
