Fever Dream by Samanta Schweblin

3.0

oh me oh my what a entertaining and boring book at the same time something about this novel is so perplexing but also just the most basic book you’ve read.  It’s a really short story which encapsulates a lot of really powerful themes, especially regarding diversity and the family unit and disability; however, I feel like there were more impactful statements that could’ve been made. The way that this book tied itself up doesn’t really speak to the power of the authors voice. Additionally, the writing style was just not something that I was able to get immersed in I’m not sure if this is due to the translator or if this is a true translation of the authors  written word, but it felt like something was missing
