Claramente a história menos conseguida de Claire Keegan, que li até ao momento. Não porque esteja mal escrita (coisa que acredito que nunca irá acontecer com esta autora), mas porque cedeu ao facilitismo de escrever sobre um tema polémico e “inflamado”, nos dias que correm. Não sei porque é que o nome foi alterado. O original “Misoginia” teria assentado como uma luva.
Com isto não quero dizer que não ache o tema premente mas preferirei, sempre, as inversões - sempre preferi escritos de homens sobre temas feministas, patriarcal, #metoo, etc, do que a visão “da primeira pessoa”.
De resto, Claire Keegan continua a fazer jus ao que diz - “existe uma certa elegância na economia das palavras”.
A ler, definitivamente, pelo para os indefectíveis da autora.

As a binational; French and English, reading this novel set in France following an Irish man and a French woman was beautiful. The fact the text was first published as a standalone under the title: Misogynie in French is also beautiful. Short and quick but full of depth.
With few words, Claire Keegan opens a conversation on Misogyny.

Absolutely loved the beautiful writing and gorgeous narration (audiobook). I much preferred this to Small Things Like These. Really moving writing that built a sense of doom from the start.
