The Golden House by Salman Rushdie
4.0
For 80% of this book I had the distinct feeling that something's missing. The last 20% blew my mind.
This is my first encounter with Rushdie's writing. Crisp and clean most of the times, cluttered and foggy at some chosen pauses. The Golden House details a side of America during Obama's presidencies and paints a vivid portrait of Trump's ascent to power. It's a big novel, and it's a slowburn, but once it grips you, you can't really put it down.
