I can‘t say I enjoyed this book - it‘s bleak, meandering and intentionally confusing. However the writing is really thoughtful and the prose paints a visually disturbing portrait of trauma and sorrow. Heavy topic of sexual abuse by clergy adds to this already dark story of a retired police officer who‘s living out an isolated existence. #BookerLongList23

Suet624 I'm reading this now and while I wonder if it's the right time for me to do this I'm giving it a go. It's been raining for months here and it's gloomy and I'm gloomy too. So we shall see... 2y
