Pitch Dark
Pitch Dark | Renata Adler
3 posts | 3 read | 1 reading | 7 to read
Whats new. What else. What next. Whats happened here. Pitch Dark is a book about love. Kate Ennis is poised at a critical moment in an affair with a married man. The complications and contradictions pursue her from a house in rural Connecticut to a brownstone apartment in New York City, to a small island off the coast of Washington, to a pitch black night in backcountry Ireland. Composed in the style of Renata Adlers celebrated novel Speedboat and displaying her keen journalists eye and mastery of language, both simple and sublime, Pitch Dark is a bold and astonishing work of art.

1⭐️ To me, this feels like Adler dumping her many random thoughts to her readers; and to make it more like a novel, she inserts the story of the protagonist Kate Ennis dealing with her affair with a married man. Not my cup of tea, unfortunately 🙅🏻‍♀️

BarbaraBB That‘s too bad. I‘ve never read her. But I love that photo! 3y
erzascarletbookgasm Yeah bummer. Interesting cover though. 3y
sisilia @BarbaraBB @erzascarletbookgasm No more Renata Adler for me 😹 However, it gets quite high ratings in Goodreads. A lot of 5⭐️! I just couldn‘t appreciate it, it‘s too hipster to my liking 3y
Liz_M I also did not like this novel and didn't understand all the fuss when it & speedboat were released. 3y
sisilia @Liz_M Zero enjoyment 🤪 3y

I adore the NY Review of Books Classics published books, and since there is a #7FavNYRBs tag going around on Twitter, I wanted to spread the love to @Litsy 💕
