"His past, his boyhood and me, fell away like a carapace, like the glass itself, settling in slivers within his psyche, the residue of good-bye."

Beautiful, lyrical prose woven perfectly through the intricacies of a complicated topic. Everything I'd expect from a Wagamese novel. Regretful I let it sit on my shelf for so long.
