pickThis book of losely connected short stories reads like a novel. In every other story we come back to Lionel, Charles and Sophie. Charles and Sophie are a couple who meet Lionel a week after he did a suicide attempt.
My heart breaks for Lionel again and again. Maybe it‘s my state of mind, I feel a bit down, but this book is so depressing. It is good though.
