2.0

an interesting premise with a strong start. the writing is lyrical, metaphorical and requires the reader to do a lot of work in order to even understand what is being described. generally i love this type of work, but this was not it. it became muddeld & mismatched not interestingly but frustratingly so. 

also at some point strange sexual language was directed towards a dog, so much so that it made me uncomfortable, as it had nothing to do with the plot & really just came out of nowhere.
