Do not take this book as a moral guide but as a realm of exploring all the hidden human desires. The language is so sensitive that the words break me easily. Each short novel unfold exquisitely, not needing much explanation besides what is happening inside at the moment. These are stories about tragedies and mourning but ultimately about healing, in the most bizarre ways, out of our innate desire for survival.
