The word is also not vague, cloudy or pretty. I found the presentation of the mother's grief very effective and convincing. Here is the thing in itself and in the case of these two characters we are spared sentimentalizations. I remembered a funeral I had been to of a close relative and it made a difference. Again Caroline is so right to quote the comment that the slow movement is realistic.
Life sometimes seems to be an endless waiting around.
