The Confusions of Young Torless by Mike Mitchell, Robert Musil, Ritchie Robertson
4.0
3.8
The rare case where I'm glad to have read 400 pages of the same author's 1200 page novel before starting this 160 page book. Musil's mind clearly works better in macro.
Shocking in its way but not quite focused enough to be fully felt. All the same, it's amazing to think it was published in 1906: transgender anxieties, homoeroticism, and sexual transgressions in a book more than a century old? Incredible.
Back to the 1200 page behemoth, then.
