Fucking terrible. Can I say that on here??
“What is it about hospital rooms that make them so seductive…”
The entire 200 pages is the writer just horning out and objectifying his wife, his daughter, and most of all his childhood adult neighbor and her daughter? This book was so damn irritating I have trouble finding respectable words. This was more an exploration of the narrator’s perversion than the grief of his recently dead wife. 0/10 would not recommend and do not understand how this won the man booker.
