It isn't just a beautifully rendered image of a strange but strong friendship, but it is also a book that brings a message of hope and beauty, something we all long for these days. Even if Theo hits rock bottom a few times, he always finds a way to get back up again and deal with his grief and losses as best as he can. Even if he is terribly flawed, he is one of the strongest charachters in fiction I've come accross in a long time. Not only in his demeanour, but certainly also in the craftmanship that the author has used to depict him.
