Work Like Any Other by Virginia Reeves

3.0

This morally complex novel set in 1920s Alabama focuses on the painful downfall and crooked path to redemption of its memorable protagonist, Roscoe T Martin. I found the most interesting parts to be about work itself, both its redemptive and exploitative elements. The novel leans heavily on the interior life of Roscoe and is not always easy to get through, especially at the moments where the journey feels meandering.
