A review by emilyrowanstudio
Avalon by Nell Zink

Did not finish book. Stopped at 36%.

I... did not get this book?
Other reviewers have said she's satiring intellectualism, but seem equally confused. This, to me, does not read as a satire, but a book that takes itself very seriously. Had to stop reading soon after the love interest, Peter, was introduced cos he seems like such a horrible person. Not a flawed character - just not very nice??
The book before he enters is meandering and not awful but does leave you wondering where this is going.
