The Lost Language of Cranes
WhidbeyIslander avatar reviewed on + 715 more book reviews


Nicely written but there are too many characters, some of which I didn't care about. The aspect of being gay in NYC during the AIDs epidemic was just a vague footnote and I was surprised it didn't dominate parts. The journey of the parents was interesting and I thought could have been fleshed out more, and the ending was a bit abrupt and leaves the reader to decide what happens to the main characters.
