A review by mcwat
The Flamethrowers by Rachel Kushner

It wouldn't be wrong to call this an odd book, but it's not odd in a bad way. I sort of feel like many of its characters would judge me for making a statement like that. I feel as though they're watching me type this and snorting disdainfully. In the world of The Flamethrowers—in Italy, in New York, in Brazil—it's best to keep your mouth shut.
