epic but translated work makes it hard to appreciate and get through. it proceeds from one scene to another clunkily, sometime abruptly plowing through plot points, other times indulging in chunks of dreamy observations, science and philosophies.
Graphic: War
Moderate: Grief and Car accident
Minor: Cancer, Gun violence, Suicide, and Murder
