Why did Jesus weep?

hmmm. the fact it took nearly a month to read speaks volumes, very rambling. he writes so well but literally nothing happens. if anyone else had written this i wouldn't have finished it - his prose is this books only saving grace

A sprawling work of art.
The prose is stunning. Jaw-droppingly incredible The story paints a fascinating portrait of lives drifting along the edge of the world. So good.
