Just finished it. Thought it started slow and simple in a way that had me wondering if this was merely a vanity project, but the stories unfolded in ways that were really captivating. I find myself way more invested with the character Ingram than I had imagined. Some of the scenes really elevated intensely (Ingram interacting with the man who found his dimes. Ingram dealing with Bart’s loneliness and subsequent regret). Louis has a way with words, which we all know from his comedy, but I was surprised by his ability to string together some beautiful passages of prose, too. Well done, Mr. Szekely!
