The Book Borrower by Alice Mattison

2.0

I can understand why readers have trouble with this book. It does take a while to get into - especially because the writing style & structure is so different. I did find that part interesting about the book, and definitely something a book club would have a good time discussing. However, despite the clever writing, I had no connection to the story or the characters in any meaningful way. I found everything quite depressing and uninspired.
