Fates and Furies by Lauren Groff
5.0
Lauren Groff’s prose will punch you in the gut. Her choppy sentences are fueled by raw emotion. This story engaged my imagination in a way that I hadn’t accessed in a long time— with each page, you cannot help but feel intimately and deeply intertwined in the relationship of Lotto and Mathilde as well as invested in their individual development.
This story embraces love but also demonstrates that its immense power is often found in its apparent imperfections—the things left unsaid, misperceptions, fury, or excessive adoration.
Additionally, I love the way Groff plays with time in this book. The apparent “chronological end” falling about half-way through.
All in all, I can’t wait to read more of her work!
