"This is a difficult book to read at times, and in all likelihood most difficult for those to whom it speaks most directly, those who have experienced the same suffering. But they may also find a welcome recognition and empathy, and the beauty from truth that the best art delivers... to the select canon of worthwhile books about fathers, Gospodinov has created a vital and valuable addition."
