sometimes i'll be reading this and im like jesus, jack!!! get over yourself!!! but i really liked his character at the end of the day. more than anything it was the prose that kept me going and the images robinson wanted to paint for us. there's sooo much sorrow. its so tender. the ending just left me in despair. hard to say if i can recommend this to anyone though. i think if you did like gilead you will appreciate this. 

It's lovely writing, but perhaps because I've just read Gilead again, and Lila, in the past few weeks I felt I'd already heard much of the same story. And I wasn't as interested in it as I was in Lila's story, though I do find Glory and Jack compelling, honest and interesting characters.
