Critic reviews

'Brilliant disquisition on family, relationships and adulthood, told in prose that is so startling in its spare beauty that I found mysef thinking about Khong's turns of phrase for days after I finished reading.' (Doree Shafrir, New York Review of Books)
‘A deceptively complex tale of dementia and its impact on a family… Like a chain of fairy lights in the darkness, with Khong displaying a deep understanding of the way in which memory humanises and connects us individually communally – and without which all becomes chaos’ (Catherine Taylor, Financial Times)
'Mostly this sweet-natured novel is about Ruth’s attempts to come to terms with a past her father can no longer remember while still attending to the quirky, fleeting joys of the present. 'Here I am, in lieu of you,' she writes, 'collecting the moments.' (Sam Sacks, ‘Best New Fiction, Wall Street Journal)

Just a diary of events but with no really story or ending. My Book Club (x8 persons) all thought similarly; only one enjoyed the diary style.

Sorry didn't enjoy the style with no story really
