This is a bit upsetting.
The Novel was one of the best things I've read in a decade. Haunting, elegaic and soul-shattering...I found myself crying for quite a while after finishing the book - but the trailer shows the story has moved far away from the novel.
I'll still watch it opening weekend, because it is still incredibly daring material for a big-budget feature film and I hope it somehow approaches the awesome intensity of the book.
