clem's review against another edition
5.0
If a painfully-detailed, beautifully-written novel about a dissatisfied housewife in late 60s suburban Vancouver sounds like something that would bore you to tears, do not read this. If you share my interest in narratives about the minutiae of women's domestic lives, particularly in the 60s and 70s, then you will probably enjoy it. The characters are profoundly authentic, Stacey's suburban ennui simply intolerable.
