A review by arnie
The Book of Dahlia by Elisa Albert

3.0

29 year old JAP Dahlia has been sitting around watching TV and smoking pot when she has a seizure. It turns out she has a brain tumor. This comic novel then goes back into time as we learn about Dahlia; her wealthy, ineffectual father; her erratic, Israeli mother; and her shitty brother who turns out to be a rabbi. A funny novel but a downer in a way. A fun read and that's about all.
