A review by wilsonthomasjoseph
Atmospheric Disturbances by Rivka Galchen

I thought about putting this down 100 pages into it. Galchen is certainly good at creating the language of a boring psychologist; although, her prose sometimes gave me chuckles and eyebrow raises. There is no plot. This is just a snapshot into the life of a man with a very rare psychological disorder. I can see the diving board for the deep, profound end of the characterization and plot pool, but no jumper in sight. I had to push my way through the scientific and clunky prose. The final three pages would certainly work better after page ten.
