Confrontations by Simone Atangana Bekono
Did not finish book. Stopped at 30%.
Gah another DNF because of poor execution.
The translation of this was okay, but there were several points just within the first 58 pages that were so clunky and riddled with missing, out of place, or misspelled words. This was sent to publication way too soon.
With my irritation re: the sloppy publishing, my motivation to continue reading was already limited. The prose, for me, wasn’t enthralling and the pace wasn’t grabbing me. Maybe I would revisit as an audiobook, but I will not read the physical copy of this one 😬
