I highly recommend to listen to this book instead of reading. I got this advice online and I was glad to follow it. For my opinion different vocals, accents, characters opens this novel much brighter to your imagination than if you personally read it alone. Outstanding talent of writer to use English language at this level. I will get back to this book again and again get just to practice my vocabulary. As for me “The Correspondent” is supremely exceeds the winner of this year “My friends” by Backman, We certainly need more novels like that.
