Kristin’s Reviews > To Paradise > Status Update

Just finished section one. Yahagihara's ability to so accurately describe anxieties and the human condition is breath taking.

So far To Paradise is both very different from A Little Life (in terms of story and structure), and incredibly similar (in terms of themes and characters). Going directly into a very 19th-century, star-crossed lovers narrative is jarring because that's not a type of novel I read much.
