I don’t know if it’s possible to have a favorite chapter in this extraordinary book but this one might be the one if forced to choose. My heart skipped a beat when Lena realized not once, but twice, someone she loved would live only in her imagination. The tragedy feels both cruel but also incriminating because they are each from her own doing. I feel badly for Lena but also want to shake her by the shoulders and say, “Come back, come back to the life you have right in front of you!”
