Mostly Hero by Anna Burns

3.0

---

 Mostly Hero is a farcical satire of superheroes and the meaning of love. It is a big fan of a run on sentence and was a very fun time until it wasn’t. Sort of like staying too long at a party. It just got a little tiring and gave me a mild to moderate headache. I think if you’re going to read it, just do it in one, there’s plenty to like about it and I’d certainly read other things by Burns. Its batshit in a fun way, and if you are in the form for something a bit daft that also relays a larger truth then this wouldn’t be a bad shout. On a different day it might be a 4 but for the time being a 3/5.
