Our Country Friends by Gary Shteyngart
1.0
This book started strong: a diverse group of people fleeing the city during early COVID create a little community that meshes business and pleasure. Once the plot got going I lost interest quickly. It's hard to describe why, but one of the things that felt off-putting was the constant referrals to Russian novels, as if this novel was trying to structure itself like one.
