A review by nerdatronic
Never Mind by Edward St Aubyn

The blurb on the back stated this book is "hilarious" and it definitely is if you consider painstaking sadism motivated by ennui funny. It's a wry and scathing take down of manners, decorum, and the social mores of the decadently rich, plus everyone is despicable and toxic and utterly repugnant. Reading this book is like immersing yourself in an immensity of writerly talent and having to come up, gasping for air and feeling like you've been submerged in black oil. Great prose; content is like chewing gravel.
