Arcadia by Lauren Groff
2.0
Lauren Groff is a lyrical writer. But I have never connected with a Lauren Groff character. They remain ciphers and reduce the impact of her prose.
Also the sudden Quarantine! and climate change issues (which were mentioned offhandedly in the book until WHOA diseases) just felt shoehorned since they were coming from insane hippie mouths. The swerve into (admittedly light) environmental peril felt clumsier than it needed to be.
