The History of Love
by Nicole Krauss
My new favourite book (9/14/2006)
This novel gave me shivers..

I knew when I first began to read that it was going to be something so extremely satisfying that i had to read each sentence carefully. The result was me not being able to put it down and then even after I finished i picked it back up again.
There are so many quotes that I just love:

"The Age Of Silence: holding hands is a way to remember how it feels to say nothing to each other"

This story makes me want Leo Gursky for an uncle, just so he can sit down and retell all these fabulous stories illustrated in the actual book in the novel.
