The Powerbook by Jeanette Winterson
4.0
What I love about Jeanette Winterson is that you can expect the unexpected in the way that she tells a story. I had read an interview with her where she said that she continually searches for new ways to unfold a story, and her desire to be an original storyteller comes through in The Powerbook.
I also enjoy reading Winterson's prose because of the poetry that lies within. I'm often drawn to writers with a flair for poetic prose, but she integrates poetry into her prose, which feels an entirely different thing. I really like it.
Winterson's passion for writing and examining sex, love, and relationships is evident in most of her work. And, her clever, strange, sexy, challenging, intelligent and most certainly creative prose style makes her a unique voice in fiction today.
