My "first read" feelings: While the lyricism occasionally comes off a bit too stridently, there are indeed a couple of heartwrenchingly lovely chapters here. I wish I could call this three and a half stars. 
 (view spoiler)[The major life change that happens to the narrator right at the end is worth more pages, I think. (hide spoiler)] 
 The boldness of the writing makes me want to buy Justin Torres a drink.
