Three Women by Lisa Taddeo

2.0

I’m just not really sure how I feel about it. As a novel it was alright, relatively entertaining and interesting but knowing it was written as a reportage on these real life women just felt kind of weird. It felt a bit uncomfortable and in my view the writing felt a bit indulgent at times as if the purpose was to get people off or be entertaining. I didn’t get the information that I felt like I wanted to on these women in the same way that you would if they were being interviewed or telling their story first hand. I don’t know, I’m not really sure how to articulate it. As a novel it was fine but it’s not a novel so I don’t know, it’s just a strange way of presenting their stories.
