This novel is one of the most beautifully written novels
that I have ever read. Swift masterfully interweaves
the story of a modern man, recovering from his
wife's death, and a Victorian clergyman, attempting
to recover from his loss of religious ideals. The elegance of his writing is unmatched, and the novel is
perfect for any bibliophile.
