Whoa! This book is confounding. Buried in
language, I’m halfway through and still don’t know how to be in this book—but I’m in it. Although it’s a tenuous comparison at best, I can only compare the reading experience of CotD, the psychology of Jelinek’s style in general, to Lucy Ellmann’s Ducks, Newburyport, which I’m also halfway through.
