Squandering the Blue: Stories by Kate Braverman

2.0

I fell for Braverman's writing quite deeply in the first pages, and was then pushed out with every subsequent turn of the page. Her use of words and imagery do not make up for many manifestations of privileged disaffection and ennui that mirror each other. Over and over she writes about things coalescing, but it feels more like emptiness merging with emptiness with nothing to say and nothing to anchor.
