ftwftw 's review for:

The Vulnerables by Sigrid Nunez

hopeful lighthearted reflective relaxing slow-paced

---

This book is short, sweet, and soothing. It is simple, a stream-of-consciousness novel that reads like a memoir and treatise to writing itself, to memory itself. We know exactly how the narrator feels about herself, what she wants, and how she is affected. It takes place during 2020 but does not feel heavy or wearisome.
