A review by krida
The Employees by Olga Ravn

3.5

This was a short read made longer because of the writing, It wasn’t bad just different. It made sense when I found out that the author is originally a poet which explains why she writes in the same ‘pondering, reflective manner’ poets often do. It gets bleak after you’ve read the first 15 or so statements but then you read a certain statement that you feel could have been written by you and it stops you in your tracks. I don’t think I have fully digested this one yet - maybe I have and I haven’t fully grasped it but I still think it’s worth the read. 

The format might be off-putting to some so be warned. 

I liked this book to an extent. I will reread this sometime in the future when I get in one of my moods.
