Cows by Matthew Stokoe
5.0
This book was like being on acid, but what a great trip!
I knew very little of this book but it takes some interesting turns. On the surface, it could appear just violent and vile, but if you read between the lines, it is very much about a man's descent into madness. You're questioning at the end what was real and what wasn't.
The main character deals with so much depression and anxiety that it chains him down. He was given a very awful hand at the beginning of life, and it just never got better. Happiness is always out of his reach, and there is only one way he can begin to even feel that he has some control over his life.
Seriously, great read!
