Reading progress update: I've read 70%.
"The fire took in souls and made them new, and Yama sleeved them as he saw fit. Estella might be reborn as a tigress or a river dolphin or an ibex that could balance on tiptoe on a mountaintop.
Or she might be born as a woman again, perhaps one who could have love all her life, instead of only the memory of it."
I don't know why this passage hurts me, but it does.
