Helpful Score: 1

This book is beautifully written, but I can't say I enjoyed it. It's one of the most heartbreaking stories I've ever read, and one I keep thinking about days after I completed it. It is incomprehensible to me that someone could give a way their own child in order to "save pain". And the book shows how the pain of this action haunts Dr. Henry for the rest of his life, ruining his marriage, his relationship with his son, and his own life. Very sad, very deeply emotional.
