I checked this out because it was on the 2022 National Book Award for Fiction long list. It’s a coming-of-age story of 3 girls from an immigrant family who become orphans. While the author’s prose style is lovely, the story is very depressing, while also not being particularly interesting. On the plus side, it’s short.
