Garden of Earthly Bodies by Sally Oliver

Amazing concept, inconsistent execution. I often found Marianne’s introspection to be distracting. I felt we were too frequently bombarded by abstract thoughts and unrealistic musings that took us out of the scene. Those lines would have hit harder if they were far fewer. I would have preferred a stronger emphasis on the the traumatic incident, the ‘hairs’, and the retreat. I loved those scenes, and wanted more of the hectic and sinister atmosphere we got towards the end.
