A review by kebakas
The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Díaz

Did not finish book.

1.0

Dropped this. I tried to give it a chance since its so frequently read in English departments, etc. But I just found myself dreading going back to it every time. I get that speaker does not equal author but the
Misogyny and racial slurs are just so gratuitous that it leaves a bad taste in your mouth. I just am so over giving men a pass to say all the shit they want to about women and applauding them for it because it's "art."
