The Word for Woman is Wilderness by Abi Andrews

3.0

I really liked this, and it was a great next choice after reading The Overstory. The journey part of the book was magnificent, and I could see where it was going towards the end but I just really wanted it to be more (though it hit some really great notes in there), even though I can’t quite articulate what was missing. Maybe I was expecting more of a change in form, as her philosophy diverged from her original stance? The break/change didn’t feel properly emphasized maybe? The thrust of the story is fantastic though. I’ll be thinking about this for a while.
