Truly beautiful book with incredible insights, though not an easy read. M invites artist L to paint the marsh she and her husband Tony live in. Let’s say, he’s not quite what she expected him to be.

Not entirely sure how I feel about this one.
It was a thoughtful and well-crafted piece about a woman seemingly stuck living a life where she doesn't feel truly alive. It's a tale of isolation, both physically and mentally, even when surrounded by people.
However, throughout the novel (and still after finishing it), there is a sense that it lacks something I can't quite place. Maybe it's that the characters all seemed to be formless imitations of particular ideals, and you never have them grow into something better or fuller. I'm not truly sure, but I would have liked to see more meaningful developments.
