Very lovely passage, Bookworm_Girl. I'm finding the writing in the book so far quite lovely and poetic though I haven't reached Chapter 6 yet. What I especially like is that it seems lovely and poetic in a very natural, calm and measured way, not forced as some (or perhaps much) literary writing can come across as.
I am also very much enjoying the audio narration by Matar himself. With this subject matter it lends heightened intimacy to hear the author read his own words.
