earlyandalone 's review for:
Two Girls Fat and Thin
by Mary Gaitskill
This was an impulse buy at the Strand and I'm disappointed because I rarely buy myself books anymore. I wanted to give Mary Gaitskill a try because I remember enjoying a few of her short stories, and have heard good things, but this novel was just too much for me. While the writing was good, it was a little too self-consciously literary, and I got to a point where the scenes were just too disturbing and there was no reward. I didn't like or feel connected to either of the main characters by almost halfway through the novel. I was sorry to quit, but I just need to move on.
