This is a very tough read with hard, but important, subject matter. I love Lamb's writing & his ability to create empathy. It took getting to the end to fully appreciate his mastery. I feel broken, yet comforted. All Lamb's titles are from songs. Here is a verse from John Foggerty's River is Waiting:
The river is rising, I'm ready
To slip from this island, I'm ready
Gonna leave all my sorrow behind me
Lift my face to the new day that's rising
