Our narrator has lost her spark! Her earnestness in “The Idiot” outweighed any accusations of pretentiousness. Selin was a little odd, drenched with dry humour, and a critical (over) thinker. With Batuman’s prose, I felt I could embody her while reading. In comparison, Selin in this novel is so disjointed! I especially hate that the tangents from #1 are now simply namedropping facts (perhaps to sound smart??)
