I Who Have Never Known Men by Jacqueline Harpman

4.0

dark mysterious sad fast-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: No

Loveable characters: No

Diverse cast of characters: Complicated

Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Enigmatic, thought-provoking and utterly dark. I flew through the story, driven by the compelling narrative voice and the unanswered questions peppered throughout. The book explored human nature in a way I haven’t really seen before, where the small details of everyday life are placed under a magnifying glass, showcasing what society has conditioned us to seek persistently. Truly haunting, I expect it will stay with me for a while.
