Temporary by Hilary Leichter

3.0

Admittedly this is not my genre, but there are definitely flashes of brilliance here. The whole logic of the book follows like a stress dream I would have - some weirdly funny bits, the logical connection of unrelated things, and then a sudden profound realization of meaning. I might have enjoyed this more if I weren't self-isolating already feeling like the logic of the universe was a little more nightmarish than I had imagined. If you are into surrealist writing, you will probably enjoy this. If you are trying to keep you feet on the ground in an unsteady moment, this might not help.
