pickThis novel feels like a wide, solemn hole held open by all varieties of past misfortunes and psychological suppressions.
The cold prose style reminds me of Brett Easton Ellis; it‘s not as dire as that though. The plot gets really good at times, but there are lulls. Another comparison for me is that Catherine Lacey novel with the girl underwater on the cover.
pick5 🌟 An Very Enthralling Read!
This is the kind of book I'm always longing to read. With characters that are so achingly real and human. Corvus's character is so excellently done. From her melancholy and haunting past we get to see her fight for her future. I loved every minute of reading this book. I really didnt want it to end. Chiem has a way with language that is seductive, brilliant and beautiful.
