aleffert 's review for:

The Unconsoled by Kazuo Ishiguro
3.0

The plot of this book was like a Dostoevsky character. It seemed rational, if somewhat melancholy, for large stretches then suddenly it would go do something inexplicable and crazy. This seemed like a mood piece that went on way too long. Reading it made me feel the same sort of confused dissatisfaction (unconsolation?) that seemed to infest the characters.
