Grief Is the Thing with Feathers by Max Porter

Go to review page

4.0

Porter has a beautiful way with words, and his debut novel is a pleasure to read. Although his poetic style is unconventional for a novel, he manages to create a gripping text that flows over you until you’ve finished as a quick read. Porter’s symbolism of grief as a crow encapsulates grief in adult and child vividly and heartbreakingly.
