A review by velozebra
Soul Mountain by Gao Xingjian

1.0

I'm going to admit I didn't finish this book. I can't finish this book. Some story lines are captivating and surreal, but when I read more and more chapters, every other one has another story of a horrible rape. Judging by most of the reviews here, most people never seemed to let that bother them, further cementing for me the conviction that rape is way too "normal." Well, I'm not buying it. It's disturbing and upsetting, so I can't finish the book. I don't have time in my life anymore for upsetting triggers.
