I laughed, I cried, I appreciated. This read was a hard one, but a must for anyone who thinks their own struggles are deafening. There was a part in the book that Tulla/Rachel, yearned for a life of bore. For the non excitement of just living peacefully, with her family.
Take nothing for granted no matter how small. Great book.
Edit: If anyone can find the song about the little maire in the Himalayas, please send it my way! I've been searching for days.
