What did I just read?
This book was too weird for me. I don‘t like books that “inhabit the fertile ground between fiction, memoir, and essay” with the author as a character in their own novel. I love novels, I love memoirs, and I prefer them to be distinct. This book was translated by Christina MacSweeney, who also translated Luiselli‘s The Story of My Teeth—which was also too weird for me.
