simonalvey 's review for:
Dept. of Speculation
by Jenny Offill
I recently read a quote from Joyce Carol Oates described modern literature as being wan little husks of auto-fiction and it feels she could have been describing this book about the fallout of an affair on a marriage, which never felt like it had anything profound to say, even whilst saying it was a sharp and brilliant writing style. As good as it was I was left unsatisfied, and looking for something more substantial.
