The Forgotten Waltz by Anne Enright

5.0

It's a testament to Enright's writing that this book is so good, despite a main character who's not very likeable and who we don't get to know all that well, despite the story being told from her perspective. I don't think we get the true sense of what Gina and Sean are like, and what we do know doesn't engender sympathy. Gina seems overly critical and negative about most everyone in her life. The writing though is remarkable: poetic and memorable.
