Protagonist Freddie Ward is a travelling musician and songwriter. When someone he had become close to, via his work, dies Freddie takes their death hard and struggles with grief, he loses his identity and shuts out the one person that is closest to him. After a meeting with someone from his past, little by little he begins to find himself again and return to the man he was before. Freddie’s journey of loss and self-discovery takes him from the UK to the USA and then back again. It was interesting to get to read about Freddie’s journey in the two different countries, both were detailed well. It was also endearing how the conversations throughout seemed so heartwarming and touching as if the author had been through the same heartache himself. The structure of the book was quite hard to grasp at the start, but once I got used to it the story started to flow and held me to the pages. This is not a book you can rush, it is a slow paced story of love, loss, and rediscovery. The pages were filled with pure emotion which you could feel intensely and the writing makes you stop and think about your own life. You might also need a tissue at some points. However, I felt a little let down by the ending as it really didn’t compliment this wonderful book, which is such a shame.
