    I dont understand why stories of “love at first sight” are so popular. I think the writing was good. I understand and could grasp some of the artistic mind aspect… but the lot of it to me came off so unrealistic that it was hard to grasp the depth that was trying to be portrayed.

  • Taken by this story

    I have been drawn in by this story and read it in one sitting. I truly feel, as a man, that there is some aspect I could reach within myself to have the soul of this man. If you are a married man, read this book and don't be upset by it but think about it. If you are not married, read this book and ponder it.

    By My Papi
    Thoughtful and honest. Many live a lifetime speaking of love. A few are fortunate enough to find it if only for a moment. Take a moment to read this tender story of a selfless and eternal love that was simply magical.

  • Powerful prose, bordering on poetry

    By Whammy!
    A well crafted novella with very few flaws, lucent prose and well developed characters, clearly this is one of the best works from the later half of the 20th century.

  • A feeling indescribable
