Wright's style of writing is not usually what I read so I have to make a real conscious effort to just let go and let the beauty wash over me when I read her books. Well worth it. So many layers of complexity and commentary. I'm not sure I'll ever fully get all of them but I'm glad I've extended myself.

Edit: re-read 2023 - listened to it as audiobook and enjoyed it so much. Wright’s writing is like poetry and gorgeous in an auditory medium.

Just not my cup of tea. The sentences weren't coming together with any kind of meaning in my head and I didn't want to slog through something I wasn't going to enjoy
