5.0

Who knew quirky noir was a genre? I do now, and I love it. I don't think I have read something like DRIVE YOUR PLOW in a long while, and that I have been thinking about it all day -- in fact, thinking about it ever since I finished its stunning last chapter yesterday evening -- is a testament to Tokarczuk's skill. I don't think it's a book for everyone, but I fell hard for it. What a play it's going to make (!).
