A review by ohnoflora
Mudwoman by Joyce Carol Oates
Did not finish book.
dnf at 19% (rounding up)
Written in 2015: I'm meeting the book group tomorrow to discuss this book but I have no motivation to finish it, so much so that I didn't take it into work with me to try and get some reading done on the bus in/out. 1) I have no patience for novels about troubled university professors 2) it is set in 2003 and is very Bush administration heavy, which I am finding tedious. Can we have a moratorium on War on Terror novels please?
Edited to add: ALSO a moratorium on 1) professional women with "secret lovers" 2) (usually male) university professors who sleep with their students 3) campus novels are garbage the end
