 The Rabbit Hutch was one of those books that I was intrigued by and wanted to give it a go but ultimately it wasn’t for me. I think the synopsis led me to expect one sort of book, one that was different from the book the author actually wrote. It turned out to be just a bit too dark, weird and abstract for my taste. I also found it a little unfocused. There was a lot going on and it didn’t come together in a cohesive way. What I did appreciate was the writing - especially the fresh, sometimes confronting, imagery which really grabbed my attention.
