A review by wirknerj
Ducks, Newburyport by Lucy Ellmann

5.0

I really enjoyed this. I was intrigued by the concept but assumed it would be a slog, after about 50 pages I was proved wrong. As soon as I got into the rhythm of the prose I didn't miss the periods and paragraphs at all.

I've never felt like I was actually in someone else's head before but Ellman has captured all kinds of weird nuances that seem to be required for our existence.
