you know when people say something is kafkaesque, and you don't really believe it because that word has been diluted to hell? yeah. this actually is kafkaesque. a big The Castle vibe all around.
the whole book has a heavily dreamy quality to it, the narrator functions as their own character of sorts (e.g. by noticing things the main character missed), and it's overall very much a page turner.
4.75/5 ⭐, recommending!
