Title: a bit drawn out and oppresive
Review: I don't wish to sound insensitive to Simon's pain and guilt, but "pain & guilt" are so omnipresent in every scene that they become the main characters in the story. Annie and Simon are the supporting characters who make it possible for P & G to do their thing, and that is not a comfortable situation. I'm glad Annie and Simon were able to squeak out a happy ending in the last few pages, but I was exhausted by the time it happened.
