challenging dark slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

Surreal, unsettling and liminal. Explores relationships, grief, homelessness, globalisation, capitalism and the exploitation inherent within the system (including child labour/trafficking).
Not sure I'd describe this book as enjoyable, there are a lot of weird sexual moments and disturbing descriptions so it's definitely not for everyone but it does have something to offer if you're in the mood for the truly bizarre.
