Turbulence by David Szalay

Where are we going with this? I don't know. A trip around the world and a single brief glimpse into the lives of a large cast of non-repeating characters and their situations: a modern and unpleasant variety of infidelities, illness, deaths, hotel rooms, loneliness, abuse, prodigal son, mother and son, husbands and wives, lovers... If there was a through-line or a overarching plot I'm not sure what it was, and maybe that's the point. Not really my cup of tea.
