W, or the Memory of Childhood by Georges Perec

1.0

I found this book a total slog to get through. Uninteresting overly analysed memories of a dull childhood combined with a strange portrait of an even stranger island society. What is strangest of all is that the characters of the second narrative disappear almost as quickly as they arrive, to be replaced by a birds eye view of the island society of W itself.
