A little life

Yanagihara, H. (2015) A Little Life. Doubleday.

How and where did you access it?

I bought it on kindle (!) after my friend, and now partner recommended it to me.

How did it make you feel?

It is absolutely bleak! - but it's funny, you fall in love with the characters and their story which in return pulls you through the grit and horror of their lives. Ultimately though, however despairing it is - Yanagihara provides a path of hope and deep, deep friendship and love which leave the reader in a tornado of emotions!

Did you share it?

Yes - I pretty much told everyone I know to read it, I even bought a few people copies, though im still not sure if they've read it.

Is there anything else you would like to tell us about it?

Probably don't read if you yourself are in a dark night of the soul phase!
