This story really hit hard with its deep, emotional themes. It made me reflect on the fleeting nature of happiness and how we should appreciate the small moments of beauty we encounter. Ondaatje’s writing has a way of making you feel both sad and hopeful at the same time. It's like a rollercoaster of emotions! I found myself getting lost in the imagery and feeling connected to the characters' struggles. It's amazing how a story can make you feel so many different emotions all at once.
