hannahlouise_ 's review for:

The Day of the Locust by Nathanael West
3.75
dark reflective medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

A book I read for uni, having never read West before I didn't know what to expect. Deeply disturbing in parts but an incredible LA novel of the great depression which paints a harrowing and vibrant portrait of Hollywood life.
