The Bone People by Keri Hulme
dark
reflective
- Plot- or character-driven? Character
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
5.0
Beautifully written, it focuses on the deeply flawed characters. It's a slow burn: as a reader, you slowly get to learn to know the characters, and you can't help feeling attached to them, before their cracks start to show. Heartbreaking, and lovely. An absolutely fantastic, and very dark, read.
