What strikes me most about this review is how you capture the novel's psychological architecture - the way the island doesn't provide refuge but amplifies internal fragility. Your observation about Robert moving "with a lantern in hand, seeing only what his inner light permits" is particularly evocative. The tension between visible presence and tacit mystery you describe in Omer's character suggests something profound about how we encounter others - and perhaps how we encounter ourselves. A story that unfolds within, indeed.
