Read it in two sittings. The last chapter genuinely made me put the book down and go for a walk. Beautifully made object too — the paper is lovely.

Slower than I expected in the middle third, but it earns it. Would happily hand this to someone who says they have stopped reading.

Bought one for myself and two as gifts. The shop wrapped them without being asked. That is the whole review.
