3.75/5

Although a short read, it was a bit of a difficult read. There are no chapters to break up this monolog; there are also no quotations around what the people are saying. It was a bit difficult to figure out who was saying what. However, once I got used to the writing and figured out who was saying what, this was an interesting story. A little eccentric, but interesting.

Thank you NetGalley and Pushkin Press for sending this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own.

I really enjoyed reading this, it had that concept that I was looking for and enjoyed the way this was told. It had that element that was promised in the description. I though the story worked overall and had that adult feel that I was expecting. Hilda Hilst wrote a great book in this and was excited to read more.
