A review by freddie
The Ravishing of Lol Stein by Richard Seever, Marguerite Duras

2.0

Such a disappointment! I thought it was going to be about a female main character with some agency, but Lol Stein barely has a voice in this book. The novel is narrated by a guy who would become Lol's lover. The first half of the book was a decent exploration of Lol's backstory but then halfway that narrator turned himself into the main character and I felt extremely cheated. GTFO, Jack!
