Well this was certainly a book! A lot of it read like a fever dream to be totally honest. It's one of those books that's written deliberately to be confusing and hazy and you're definitely not supposed to know what's going on at least half the time. I don't read or enjoy books like this often so I didn't know what was going on even less than half the time. I didn't hate it, but I don't think I really got anything out of it either?
If you took a step back and looked at it in the broad strokes, this book is commenting on how living in a small town and being stuck in a stagnant life can rob you of all passion and drive. You get stuck in one role and lose yourself to it entirely until you're something completely different. It could also be a commentary on how that particular brand of loneliness can lead you to being desperate for any form of attention or affection, no matter how bad for you it is. Still, I don't think this was a book written for me.
