See allThe Mothers themselves kind of reminded me of the Furies.
RIYL: Commonwealth by Ann Patchett
unlikable characters is the type of thing that has never bothered me before, but my god, the people in this novel are detestable. nevertheless i tore through it
This book never really came together for me. I did find the Epstein sections more enjoyable and better written than the sections with the unnamed writer. The latter was full of philosophical ruminations that were a slog. Like others, I was disappointed that the two storylines never intertwined. Overall, a miss.
