A review by jooke
Boy Swallows Universe by Trent Dalton

3.0

Can't say that I'm a fan of this book and that I can relate with the majority of the reviews.

Yes, some things are nice described/formulated and Eli's story shines a different light on the Australian suburbs than what I imagined based on tv and other books. so it was quiet interesting and intriguing.
But the way Eli thinks and experiences all the (harsh) things life throws at him, is too chaotic for me and it didn't evolve when he got older.
