A review by emilywaltonreads
The Cockroach by Ian McEwan

3.0

I am a big fan of Ian McEwen and of satirical writing, so I enjoyed this. I think it could’ve been done as a short story. I enjoyed some of the more minor satirical elements, the US Pres, for example, and the part about Me Too. I’m not particularly interested in the complexities of Brexit or global economics so some aspects were beyond me, but I’m glad I read it.
