holobiont42 's review for:

The Unconsoled by Kazuo Ishiguro

---

This book feels like a dream. Everything goes wrong, you (the main character) make all the wrong choices and things keep happening while you watch, powerless, both bystander and protagonist, while things slowly but constantly spin out of control. All the characters are annoying, the situations are annoying, the protagonist is annoying and you just keep asking why and where and how things went wrong and wasn't there a better way to do things than this nonsense?????

I don't know if I liked it but I couldn't put it down regardless which is saying something.
