A review by timothypeacock
Ducks, Newburyport by Lucy Ellmann

hopeful reflective medium-paced

5.0

Ducks, Newbury port is an interesting read that is chaotic at times, but overall gives an overall charm to the reader.  It is written in an unorthodox way, in that there is a lack of pronunciation, with a stream of consciousness thought announced by the protagonist.  As a reader, it can be challenging to read at first given the way it is written, but once the reader is able to free themself from the constraints of prose written form, you get a real sense of the modern chaotic world that we live in.
