The Nursery by Szilvia Molnar
3.0

this book lowkey made me never want to have children lmao

this was another sort of hazy fever dream novel, but in a really unsettling way. the descriptions of the narrator’s physical state, the postpartum emotional/mental stuff she’s going through… oh god it all sounded so awful to me

the writing was quite interesting, coming from a hungarian-swedish author whose main character is a translator. lots of language play, sometimes a bit hard for me to follow along with but overall a really interesting writing style

anyway catch me gobbling my birth control like candy after reading this lmao
