A review by rworrall78
Skippy Dies by Paul Murray

Did not finish book. Stopped at 30%.
Page count approximate as I'm listening. Undoubtedly clever and well written. I couldn't get past the Carl chapters. I don't need a list of depraved, misogynistic/ abusive porn and Carl's violent thoughts whilst masturbating and listening his parents argue to get the point that chapter 8 is trying to make. I was thoroghly alienated. The male characters are treated much more delecately and in detail. As with so many male authors the women are just props.
