I Who Have Never Known Men by Jacqueline Harpman

dark mysterious reflective sad medium-paced

4.0

I liked this but I definitely did not love it. I expected that it might be bleak but bleak it was 😐 an interesting exploration of what it means to live and what it means to be human.

I had some issues with the structure, there were a few passages in the beginning that I felt were noteworthy but would have had a stronger impact near the end (...but I'm not a writer so just my own opinion/preference 😉). At the end, I did go back and reread the first few pages having had a better understanding of what was being said!
