so-soI loved the first half of this book but found that it really fell apart for me in the second half, particularly in a section that becomes mired in french law.

"A visit always brings pleasure - if not when it begins, then when it ends."
A so-far-rare moment of levity, tellingly from a different book!
This is such am amazing read, great writing, powerful. If you like memoirs, or anything about grief/trauma etc., try it. I found it after the NYT books podcast reviewers all were reading and recommending it (at the end of every podcast each reviewer talks about what they're currently reading). I concur.
