Talk by Linda Rosenkrantz
5.0
Fiction - Literary, Realism, 1960s, LGBTQ, Feminism. NYRB Trade Paperback. Found browsing the shelves at Kepler’s Books in Menlo Park.
Over the course of several months, the author transcribed 1500 pages of dialogue and whittled it down to this slim novel documenting the interactions of three friends over one summer in the Hamptons. Remove a few political references and this book feels like it could be written today. It’s forthright, conversational and personal, an amazing achievement for such a unique concept.
