The story has two wonderful layers; one on the surface and a hidden one. The first is the essay style chapters that are truly reminiscent of the 1980s in their descriptive style of everyday life. These layed-back, short chapters have a great eye for detail and focus on the comfort of mundane reality which makes for a splendid relaxing read.
This focus on the perception of daily reality leads to the second layer: the message that we should value the small blessings of daily life whose value we only realise once they're gone.
