the back of this book says it's not a dark book. the back of this book is wrong. this book was horrendously depressing. three deaths in the span of 216 pages is just more than any person should have to read. the language was nice and lyrical without being overdone (the guy's a poet, apparently), but HOLY DEPRESSING.
