I knew I’d like this one. Another Dickensian day-in-the-life story, the prose simpler than Donna Tartt’s but similar in characterization. The smallest details are heartbreaking, and I know I haven’t reached the saddest parts yet. What stands out to me is how much I love Jude too, and how careful is both his cooking and the descriptions of his food prep.
