This is a book I wouldn't have picked up from the subject matter alone, and but a couple of trusted sources recommended it, and man, were they right. On the surface, this is a story about a marriage, but it's also about how much or how little you can know the people around you in life. It's about perspective, and trauma, and the things that make us who we are, and it's done within the context of a modern Greek tragedy. The writing style, as I'm coming to expect from Lauren Groff, is superb enough to just make me angry at how good it is. Groff is good. Read her books.
