The Sense of an Ending by Julian Barnes
3.0
3.5 stars
And possibly higher as I let this sit. And perhaps higher still if I ever get around to rereading this one. It's short and plot-light, but still manages to be dense in an idea and words kind of way. For every sentence or two I highlighted for beauty or relateability, I felt like I missed five more. Perhaps not literally, but that's the feeling this story has left me with. I really enjoyed it for its stream of conscious style and the wonderful, skillful writing.
I'm still not sure how it made me feel.
