If youve had a parent or family member that left in the 2000s and 2010s to work in Italy, this book is what you need to read. Lungu's language and slang is fresh, relateable and exactly what youd find in everyday romanian talk, no grammatical or syntax bullshit. The story was a relateable one from many points of view, and I think that those that at one point went to Italy will relate to it even more. Sometimes paragraphs would go on for pages, which was either a hit or a miss, and the finale was completely off the fucking charts, I dont think anyone was expecting that to happen, and I dont know if its necessarily a good or a bad thing. This is the second book Ive read from Lungu and it makes me want more, it seems like the guy has a thing for ending his books during heavy snowing winter scenarios.
