This was certainly a unique read. The story is rather disorganized and Sakowski writes what seem to be fables with no lesson to take away. It's almost like he jam-packed this book full of symbols and archetypes then said 'What if the symbols don't mean anything? and the archetypes are actually just, like, people?' He labelled the book an 'anti-novel' and it certainly is that.

I get frustrated with absurdism because, in the end, it's really just nihilism. And with that comes heaps of insincerity which just leaves me feeling bitter. But, with that being said, this was pretty enjoyable absurdism.

A wonderful book. I always relate to insane homeless women so I was delighted this had one in it.
