Customer Reviews

Over the top

This isn't a book for the faint of heart, but I was genuinely impressed by the author's commitment to disgusting prose. Open to any random page and you'll trip on a visceral and nasty metaphor comparing human nature, physical pain, or familial dysfunction to things like s*** or tumerous growths. The author's ability to avoid repetitious phrasing whilst describing terrible scenes was genuinely impressive. I'm not sure if I like this book or not, but the feat of the prose itself being over the top and ramping into getting grosser and grosser the whole way through has me leaning towards honestly liking it. It was a fun (awful) story to indulge in, like what it would be like reading a garbage-pails-kid card. The characters are all failed humans in their own ways, and the ways each gets flayed by the story's circumstances and worked over for their incompetencies is actually... very interesting character work? I think I like this book the more I really think about it.
