Slow to get going at first, but you know there's something under the surface in this story. At the end, it is a combination of several human stories about why people behave in certain ways. There's always lots of reasons behind why someone stops using too many words. A captivating story that grips you a little bit at a time until the whole thing shakes you to the core. My Rating: 7.5
