I know this is translated and it reads like stream of consciousness. But because of this I was less engaged. I wished there to be more elegant prose. But that’s not what this book is for. So don’t go into it if you expect that.
I would also say look up the Trigger warnings.
This is definitely a book I can see being in an AP lit class or translated literature college course.
