Hugely original but somehow infuriating. No idea why. She’s one of our best new writers. And this is well observed. It’s uncannily accurate. I mean having lived the London life. With an older partner too. It’s not exactly the same but I can empathise with the narrator. Apart from the Irish angle.
Now I wish it would go somewhere.

Here we go again. I’m struggling once more. Still almost 300 pages to go and floundering. Claustrophobic, ingenious prose, makes this an intense read. We’ve met these characters before but somehow it’s different. Not enjoying it yet as much I expected to. Sadly. ☹️

Very interesting stylistically. Written in a spare, unconventional grammar and syntax across two timeframes. Flashbacks/ stories told in film and a diary form. Th story is pretty dark. Unfortunately, though interesting it wasn't a book which encouraged me to pick it up.
