A review by bobthebookerer
Owlish by Dorothy Tse
4.0
This book is a weird little gem, and I loved how it is almost in on the joke itself, realising how absurd and bizarre it is throughout.
Professor Q, our oblivious and confused main character, tries and fails to understand the world around him, an alternative society where we have sights such as sexualised dancing dolls, protests and the Kafkaesque drudgery of trying to get tenure.
It is a real oddball of a book, with some unforgettable and funny moments throughout.
I received an advanced copy of this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
