This book spans from the early 1900's to the mid-80's and presents three stories linked by grief, chimpanzees, and the High Mountains of Portugal. Although I appreciated the intricate connections and themes explored within the stories, I found parts 2 & 3 more compelling than the lengthy part 1. Grief and making sense of living on are portrayed in a sensitive, thought-provoking manner.
