Maybe The Horse Will Talk by Elliot Perlman
2.0
It is with great sadness and inner conflict that I decided to quit on this novel around the 40% mark.
There's a huge discordance between how much I care about the issues at the core of this novel and how little I've enjoyed it. I appreciate what Perlman is doing and I'm convinced he had the best intentions, it just didn't work for me. I'm sorry to say that I found it trite, at times, the conversations were unbelievable, moralistic and read like essays on women's discrimination and harassment in the workplace.
This was one of the books I was most excited to read this year, but it turned out to be one of the biggest disappointments. :-(
