A review by ronanmcd
Beast by Paul Kingsnorth
4.0
A post everything world, a man, if he exists, wanders broken through the wreck of a British upland. He follows or is followed by a cat, if it exists.
The writing is broken, like poetry, or someone talking in a fever.
The world is harsh, gives nothing, it's empty and unclear.
I had to read entire sections a number of times. The way the language flows without too much formal structure means you can lose your way, retrace your steps, find a different meaning. Exactly as the narrator does.
