A review by raehink
Universality by Natasha Brown

challenging dark reflective slow-paced

3.0

I had to sit with this one for a while so I could figure out what I had just read. 

All is not as it seems here and themes of truth-telling, perception, manipulation, and victimology abound. Also lots about class and the power of language. 

But why make it so difficult and somewhat pretentious?
