A review by clairelorraine
Anagrams by Lorrie Moore

4.0

I had no idea what was happening in this book at first(!), but when I got a handle on the experimental storytelling, I was like ah yes! Also, it was fun to finally get what was going on...maybe! This is the kind of book I'd like to talk to someone about because while I have theories about theme etc., I'm still maybe a little kinda sorta confused. When Moore settled into poetry teacher Benna, I could relax a little until I kept not believing Benna's child and friend were imaginary even when she said it. That section was like a very literary episode of "thirtysomething" and I mean that in the best way possible.
